Well, my feeling is that capping is reducing the amount of CPU you have available before you hit the wall, right. Now, if you're a bank like us and you hit the wall during the period when peak online WEB type processing is coming in from the customer base they get terrible response time. If they get enough of that it's bye-bye customer. At least you have to balance the software cost savings against customer dissatisfaction, but then I guess that's for management to do.
