      Server Description

      An ARM64 compute-focused instance featuring thirty-two dedicated physical cores and a low-memory footprint for efficient multi-threaded workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D32pls_v5 is an ARM64 virtual machine powered by a 32-core Ampere Altra Neoverse-N1 processor running at 3.0 GHz. It features 64.0 GB of RAM, establishing a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio designed for compute-focused workloads with lower memory requirements. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators but supports Premium Storage. Benchmarks indicate average multi-core performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 57,267.23 and a Geekbench multi-core score of 12,640.0, alongside a static web serving throughput of 32.54 GB/sec. Single-core performance is a relative tradeoff, scoring 1,100.0 in Geekbench. This instance is suited for multi-threaded tasks, software compilation, and web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      1.6Score
      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.
