You also need to watch the main memory used for your LPAR configuration(s). That is, if you share 1000 devices with 10 lpars, you will eat up a lot of central storage.
Sharing devices isn't free. There is a cost in central storage, along with what others have said.

The "official" recommendation for I/O configuration for Linux on z is to limit access in the IODF to devices Linux actually uses. Some don't want to take the time. So we are wondering if everyone does this. Feel free to respond off list.
