    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and 128 GB of RAM for standard enterprise workloads.

    General Purpose

    The Microsoft Azure D32_v4 is a general-purpose virtual machine powered by an Intel Xeon 8272CL processor running at 2.6 GHz on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 32 dedicated vCPUs and 128.0 GB of system memory, establishing a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio. The x86_64 architecture supports AVX-512 instructions but lacks local storage and GPU acceleration. Across standard benchmarks, the instance delivers mid-tier performance, with a multi-core Geekbench score of 10,337.0 and a Redis throughput of 26.15 million operations per second. However, large-scale LLM inference is a notable bottleneck, with 70B model prompt processing falling into the bottom 10% tier. This virtual machine is designed for general-purpose workloads, software compilation, and static web serving where network-attached storage is sufficient.

    Workload Profiles

    1.26Score
    Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
