As noted by the entire universe, that is true. Our VM LPAR normally has 5 shared cpus. The normal TPF guest has no more than 3 virtual cpus. If special functional tests are being run, a user may go higher than 5. This requires our complicity as we have to update the directory to allow it, and there are no performance expectations. It is usually off-peak when these tests are run.
