    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-speed local SSD storage, and strong memory bandwidth.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D64ds_v4 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the DDSv4 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8272CL x86_64 processor running at 2.6 GHz. It provides 64 dedicated vCPUs across 32 physical cores, 256.0 GB of system memory, and a bundled 2458 GB local SSD. Operating under Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance delivers strong memory bandwidth, with uncached large-block reads reaching 207.3 GB/sec and writes at 95.23 GB/sec. It also exhibits strong performance in database operations. However, without GPU acceleration, it is poorly suited for large-scale AI workloads, as demonstrated by a low 70B LLM text generation speed of 2.33 tokens per second. The server is highly effective for general-purpose enterprise applications, database hosting, and software compilation.

    Workload Profiles

    2.2Score
    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.
