Benchmark a cloud PC? No way. Just trust us, they work, says Microsoft
post
by Ron Martinsen, senior product manager for Windows 365 Cloud PC and Azure Virtual Desktops, opens with an account of his 28+ years of experience at Microsoft. During that time, he reminisces, he was"involved in countless performance studies" and learned"it's nearly impossible to get repeatable data in an environment that reflects the reality of what users will be using."
Martinsen wrote that the number of variables involved – the OS, network latency, disk caching, and memory optimization dependent on the startup order of applications – mean"when you run the same test repeatedly under identical conditions, you get results that might not be an exact match each time.
Martinsen also revealed"the underlying hardware of Cloud PCs may vary over time as Microsoft updates and upgrades its infrastructure. Therefore, it is not possible to provide exact performance metrics for each Cloud PC configuration as they may differ slightly depending on hardware configuration."
