There used to be a "PR/SM Planning" manual available via ResouceLink
that explained LPAR dispatch pretty well. Haven't looked in a while, but
it didn't cover soft capping last I looked.
The redbook site is always worth a quick search.

Remember (soft) capping is based on a 4 hour rolling average - this
probably explains why you see capping extend across quiet periods (like
lunchtime). On one of our development LPARs we've seen capping enforced
for 20 hours following a (big) "hit" in the overnight processing.
Pisses the devs off no end when they get into work - and they of course
only exacerbate the issue, but you couldn't tell them that...
