Thanks very much for that, Holger.
We're not considering any 1-CPU partitions at this time. The sort
of choice we're facing is whether to have a single 4-cpu partition
with two disparate applications, or two 2-cpu partitions each with
only one application.
I'll have another look at the types of workloads involved. However,
I think that in most cases it's things like two SAP systems, but for
different customers. So it's going to be administrative issues
rather than conflicting memory use that cause problems.
