That 5% idle CPU consumption is not the only problem, creating a new process will add additional overheads anyway so it does not make sense to have more pharo processes than CPU cores.
You can probably run a few thousand images on a single high-end x86 server (2*22 Core Xeon, 1TB ram). I just started 21 images on my dual-core i5 MBP. top tells me my system is 75-80% idle, pharo processes taking 2-3%CPU and 1.6GB MEM (33MB-146MB)
