Currently, Intel hasn’t released specific benchmarks dedicated solely to Milestone VMS performance on the 4th Gen Intel Scalable CPUs, but based on general performance improvements in video surveillance workloads, there are key metrics to consider:
General Benchmarks to Expect:
- AI Inference Acceleration: With Intel’s Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX), you can expect up to a 1.5x increase in AI workload processing (such as video analytics, object detection, and facial recognition), which directly benefits systems like Milestone XProtect that rely on real-time analytics.
- Performance per Watt: The 4th Gen Intel Scalable CPUs boast improved power efficiency, often delivering up to 30% more performance per watt, making them ideal for large-scale Milestone deployments where power consumption is a concern.
- Core Scaling: On platforms like Milestone XProtect Corporate, these CPUs can manage up to 50% more concurrent video streams thanks to their ability to support up to 112 cores per system, allowing for smoother scaling across multiple cameras and high-definition streams.
Real-World Expectations for Milestone:
While exact benchmarks vary based on your specific configuration, the combination of higher core counts, increased clock speeds, and enhanced AI acceleration directly translates to faster video processing, quicker threat detection, and more efficient storage management in Milestone deployments.
You should see significant performance improvements in:
- Recording throughput: Handling more cameras (particularly in 4K or 8K resolution) without frame loss or buffering.
- Faster real-time alerts: Milestone’s AI-driven analytics, like license plate or motion detection, are processed more quickly, reducing response time in critical events.
Stay tuned for specific Milestone benchmarks from Intel or third-party vendors as these systems become more widely tested on 4th Gen Intel CPUs.
