STAC-M3 Benchmark: L tick database 1.0 on Oxide OxVM w/ 128 vCPUs & 1.25 TiB of RAM

# STAC-M3™ Benchmark Results: L tick database 1.0 on an Oxide OxVM virtual machine with 128 vCPUs and 1.25 TiB of RAM, with 5 x 3.44 TB Oxide Local NVMe Disks (Antuco suite) | STAC - Insight for the Algorithmic Enterprise Source: [https://docs.stacresearch.com/M3-20261005a](https://docs.stacresearch.com/M3-20261005a) [](https://docs.stacresearch.com/) Type: Audited Specs: STAC\-M3™ Benchmarks \(Antuco Suite\) STAC recently performed STAC\-M3™ benchmark audits on a stack featuring the L tick database 1\.0 from L Labs PBC running on a single Oxide OxVM cloud virtual machine with 128 vCPUs and 1\.25 TiB of RAM, with 5 x 3\.44 TB Oxide Local NVMe disks\. STAC\-M3 is the industry standard enterprise tick\-analytics benchmark for database and hardware stacks that manage large time series of market data\. It provides a vendor\-neutral framework for evaluating the performance, efficiency, and scalability of time\-series databases used in financial analytics and backtesting\. This report covers the baseline suite \(Antuco\), for performance under fixed conditions\. Results for the Shasta suite are available[here](https://docs.stacresearch.com/M3-20261005s)\. In these latest tests, the combination of the L tick database and the Oxide OxVM cloud virtual machine achieved the following: - This solution achieved the highest storage efficiency \(STAC\-M3\.v1\.1\.STORAGE\.EFF\) of any published STAC\-M3 Antuco result, 364%- 1\.86x the efficiency of the previous best result \(SHK211203\) - This solution outperformed all publicly disclosed results for STAC\-M3\.β1\.1T\.YRHIBID\-2\.TIME- 1\.81x faster than the previous best result \(KDB211210\) - Compared to SUTs using the q language, this solution achieved the fastest mean\-response STAC\-M3\.β1\.1T\.NBBO\.TIME- 1\.58x faster than the previous best result \(KDB230707\) - Was faster in 11 of 17 mean\-response time benchmarks than all other publicly disclosed results using a cloud\-based deployment architecture - Outperformed a similar SUT using the q language, NAND flash storage / NVMe SSD, and the same file system \(KDB250929\) in 9 of 17 mean\-response time benchmarks, including:- 8\.4x speed for STAC\-M3\.β1\.10T\.THEOPL\.TIME - Over 1\.7x speedup in STAC\-M3\.β1\.1T\.STATS\-UI\.TIME The Stack Under Test included: - Database- L tick database 1\.0 from L Labs PBC - Database node- 1 x Oxide OxVM cloud virtual machine, with: - 1 x 128 vCPU Oxide Virtual Turin\-like Processor - 1,280 GiB VM memory \(1,259 GiB visible to the OS\) - 5 x 3\.44 TB \(3,200 GiB\) Oxide virtual NVMe disks - Operating system- Ubuntu 24\.04\.4 LTS The report provides detailed performance metrics, methodology, and visualizations for the Antuco suite\.
