[Users] vzctl --cpuunits max?

[Rene C.]

Now you mention it, I think I remember reading about that before. The
cpuunits is really just a matter of percentages, isn't it?   If I
understand right you could just as well start with a value of 100 for
a server and then in this case assign 67 (as 2/3) to this VE, and re
remaining 33 to remaining VE's. That would accomplish the same as
setting this VE to ~1390000 (2/3 of ~2085000) and use the remaining
~694000 for remaining VE's -- right?
