Abstract

The Lenovo ThinkSystem ST45 V3 has set four performance world records for compute-intensive applications with new results of the SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark.

This document summarizes the the SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark results for the ThinkSystem ST45 V3 that were published on December 3, 2024. The document lists the results, summarizes the major components of the configuration under test, and provides the link to the relevant benchmark organization’s web site for details about the results.

Introduction

The Lenovo ThinkSystem ST45 V3 server has set four performance world records for compute-intensive applications with new results of the SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark.

The benchmark world records are:

  • Best overall SPECspeed2017_int_energy_base score on a 1-processor system
  • Best SPECspeed2017_int_energy_base score
  • Best overall SPECspeed2017_int_energy_peak score on a 1-processor system
  • Best SPECspeed2017_int_energy_peak score

Lenovo ThinkSystem ST45 V3These new benchmark results, published in new SPEC reports on December 3, 2024, demonstrate that the ThinkSystem ST45 V3 continues Lenovo’s leadership with outstanding performance for the server industry.

The ThinkSystem ST45 V3 achieved the following SPEC CPU 2017 scores:

  • SPECspeed2017_int_energy_base: 362 (1,2)
  • SPECspeed2017_int_energy_peak: 380 (3,4)

These results are both over 20% better than competitor’s results using the same processor. (5)

SPECspeed2017 scores are ideal for measuring single-threaded compute-intensive applications, such as High Frequency Trading (HFT) and other financial industry workloads.

The Lenovo ThinkSystem ST45 V3 server was configured as follows:

  • 1 x AMD EPYC 4344P processor - 8 cores, 3.80 GHz, 32 MB L3 cache
  • 64 GB system memory
  • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP6

The results are current as of December 3, 2024. To view details of the results, see the following SPEC web pages:

About SPEC CPU 2017

SPEC CPU 2017 is SPEC's industry-standard suite of benchmarks for measuring and comparing compute intensive performance, stressing a system's processor, memory subsystem and compiler. This benchmark provides a comparative measure of compute-intensive performance using workloads developed from real user applications.

The SPEC CPU 2017 benchmark suite measures server performance in the following ways:

  • SPECspeed 2017 is to compare time for a computer to complete single tasks
  • SPECrate 2017 is to measure the throughput or work per unit of time.

This benchmark is targeted for use by hardware vendors, IT industry, computer manufacturers, and government.
