Exactly what I was thinking of. There have been many threads here I have read regarding better performance on some systems by assigning a single vcpu rather than multople vcpu's, because of the VM having to wait for multiple time-slices on multiple physical proc's. Thus, trying the machine to solely utilize one or more physical proc's., and also guaranteeing it a MHz level from the total pool high enough to handle the load, you may be able to achieve what you are looking for. I would love to hear some thoughts from some of the VM guru's out there on this. I have been wondering about how to possibly switch some of our high-load machines, like our Exchange Server, over to a VM, and have been confused as to the best way to configure the vcpu's for this type of machine.
