in general - as many sockets as the number of cores you have available, minus a 
couple for the host OS(one or two should be ok)
you can run more, but then they will compete for the core and performance would 
decrease. But if those VMs are not CPU intensive it may very well be ok (you 
just need to disable the default cluster policy which limits the size to number 
of hosts’s cores)
