Another way to look at it (and I think what you are saying) would be to broaden the notion of "shares" a bit to include more of the system resources-- for example, memory. What's tough there, though, is that our notion of shares today represent an entitlement, and the case of memory, we're talking about a cap on utilization. I think fundamentally we hear from two camps: those who want to proportionally partition whatever resources are available, and those who want to see the system as "virtual 512MB Ultra-2's" or "virtual 1GB, 1ghz PCs." -dp -- Daniel Price - Solaris Kernel Engineering - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - blogs.sun.com/dp _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org
