We're back to 1 processor now.

I've always defined the Linux guests with 1 virtual CPU since I had 1 real
licensed.  Now you've got me curious... There isn't any value to defining
more than 1 virtual CPU when you only have 1 IFL is there?

I would think not.  The MP effect usually guarantees that 1 2-processor
system is significantly less than 2 1-processor systems.  The amount of lost
capacity has decreased over the years, but it is still non-zero.

Even though you set the weights to '1' processor, do you get better
throughput having 2 processors actually doing the work?
