And I would expect that you would only get 1 or 2 (3 at a push) on a decent
box with ESX. I am not talking about 10 or so :-)

I'm not sure this is correct any longer. Some Adobe server products are now
explicitly supported for use within VMware ESX.

two-processor box, which is all your CF license allows.
