Free version of 5.5 (CPU and Memory Limitation)

Hello,

Is there a CPU and memory limitation if I run the free version of 5.5?  I remember there was a one socket limitation (CPU) but am not sure, maybe that was the older version. 

Thanks ahead.

Unless I'm mistaken, the only limitation with the free ESXi 5.5 Hypervisor is the 8 vCPU maximum for virtual machines and the restiction for virtual hardware version 9 (5.1 compatibility) with the vSphere Client. Previous versions had all kind of different limitations, like cores per socket, pysical memory, ...., but that's all gone with the current version.
