I'm a sub second speed freak. What is the max number of cpu's and

hundreds of jails. Money is not a deciding factor here, horse power is.

Looks like there is set up to 128 maxcpu (or no limit) since FBSD 9.0.

Memory i don't know.
With 64Bit it should many ram avaible.

In theory, max RAM would be 18446744073709551616 bits (2^64) I know it
is possible to configure a system with 64 cores (4 x 16-core cpus).
However, I haven't seen definitive tests on scaling that far. Last I
saw, somewhere in the 6 to 8 core range, you really hit the point of
diminishing returns. If you are doing lots of jails, I would suggest
splitting up 'sets' of jails and limiting them to run on a group of
specific cores. In the above configuration, you could have 8 groups of
8 cpu-cores, each handling a specific set of jails.
Good luck
