      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and moderate memory capacity for standard, non-storage-intensive workloads.

      General Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D4_v5 is an x86_64 general-purpose virtual machine from the Dv5 family, running on Microsoft Hyper-V. It features a dedicated Intel Xeon 8370C processor clocked at 2.8 GHz with 4 vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks reveal average single-core capabilities, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1653.0 and stress-ng single-core score of 1897.28. However, multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics are generally weak, as seen in the multi-core Geekbench score of 3526.0 and large-block memory read speed of 29.82 GB/sec. It performs adequately in static web serving at 6.6 GB/sec and small-model LLM inference. This server is best suited for general-purpose workloads, lightweight web serving, and basic text processing tasks that do not require high multi-threaded performance or local storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.36Score
      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.
