I would expect a 64 gig machine to be able to host 200-300 VMs, and an order or two magnitudes more containers

I guess you don't have anything CPU intensive running.

General good practice for sysadmins is to affine CPU cores/threads so that you don't end up flushing the CPU cache too aggressively and you don't split your VM's over NUMA zones because memory locality is important.

Well, I was asking what the actual result was. GP (who didn't respond to me) mentioned it was an experiment. TheDong gave experimental results in a reply though.
