      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and memory-to-core ratios optimized for standard enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D8s_v5 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the DSv5 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8370C processor. It provides 8 dedicated vCPUs, 4 physical cores, and 32.0 GB of RAM, establishing a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-memory ratio. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs, relying on Premium Storage for remote disk access. Benchmark results indicate average performance across most metrics, including a Geekbench multi-core score of 6064.0 and a Redis SET throughput of 7.85 million operations per second. However, multi-threaded bzip3 decompression is a relative bottleneck, performing in the bottom 25% at 32.2 GB/sec. This server is configured for general-purpose workloads such as static web serving, software compilation, and database operations.

      Workload Profiles

      0.61Score
      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.
