VM-300 Product azure sizing

[GavenCarley]

Have a couple of VM-300 series VMs in azure that are running at an incorrect sizing. Looking at resizing but was wondering if since the VM-300 Series only supports 4VCPU are the additional VCPUs not used? 

Typically per documentation VM-300 Series are sized at a D3 in Azure

We have firewalls in the VM-300 series sized at a D5v2 so way more resources than what's needed and was wondering if the leftover resources are being used.

The VM-300 will only use 4 vCPUs. Any additional vCPUS that are on the
instance won’t be used for processing packets.

Yeah, that's what I thought. What could be better than 12 unused vCPUs?
