CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, high-speed local SSD storage, and excellent memory subsystem performance.

General PurposeStorage & Database

Microsoft Azure D32a_v4 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the DAv4 family, powered by an AMD EPYC 7452 processor on the x86_64 architecture. It features 32 dedicated vCPUs running at 3.525 GHz, 128.0 GB of RAM, and 819 GB of local SSD storage. Operating under the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the server exhibits strong single-core CPU performance and top-tier PassMark memory scores, while its multi-core, memory bandwidth, and compression benchmarks fall within the average range. Lacking a GPU, it is not designed for heavy parallel acceleration, and large LLM inference tasks show weaker performance. The balanced vCPU-to-RAM ratio and integrated local SSD make this instance a cost-effective choice for general-purpose workloads, database operations, software compilation, and static web serving.

Workload Profiles

1.2Score

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.
