    Server Description

    An ARM64-powered compute platform featuring sixty-four dedicated cores and a low memory-to-core ratio optimized for highly parallelized workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D64pls_v5 is an ARM64-based virtual machine from the DPLSv5 family, powered by a 64-core Ampere Neoverse-N1 processor running at 3.0 GHz with dedicated CPU allocation. It features 128.0 GB of RAM, equivalent to 2.0 GB per core, and does not include local storage or GPUs. Operating under the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, the instance delivers strong multi-core performance and high cached memory bandwidth, alongside strong results in software compilation and Redis operations. However, single-core performance and text processing remain average to weak. Given its low memory-to-core ratio and high parallel processing capability, this server is optimized for compute-heavy, multi-threaded workloads such as software compilation, web serving, and caching, rather than memory-intensive databases.

    Workload Profiles

    2.64Score
    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.
