Hi Christian – my twopence worth – for the sake of 4Mhz the DB change should be 
OK, it seems a bit overkill to create and replace all your service offerings 
just to accommodate your new 1995MHz hardware.

    Hi. You just have to restart all affected VMs after offering change,

    It might be better to configure CPU overprovisioning in case you met system
    limits.
