CPU and System Topology
Server Description
An x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine featuring a high memory-to-core ratio for memory-intensive workloads with moderate processing demands.
Microsoft Azure E4s_v5 is an x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine within the ESv5 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 4 dedicated vCPUs from 2 physical Intel Xeon 8370C cores clocked at 2.8 GHz, paired with 32.0 GB of RAM. This configuration provides a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core, though it lacks local storage and GPU resources. Performance benchmarks indicate average single-core capabilities, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1664.0, but show weak multi-core scaling and memory bandwidth, as evidenced by a multi-core Geekbench score of 3527.0 and large-block read speeds of 29.84 GB/sec. This server is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy, low-compute workloads. It is best suited for memory-bound applications, static web serving, and moderate database operations that do not demand high parallel processing power.
