Container Instance cores

Question

I deployed an Azure Container Instance (Windows based) defining 4 cpu resourse request.

I have poor perfomance on a task that requires multicore.
I connected to container and checking cpu i see only two cores

What's wrong?

Answer 1

Azure cores are Virtual Cores, and each physical core typically contains 2 Virtual Cores. You are correctly showing 2 physical cores, with 4 virtual cores. To view the accurate azure cores, add the 'numberoflogicalprocessors' value.

wmic cpu get caption, numberofcores, maxclockspeed, numberoflogicalprocessors
