Hello Len, How many threads or processes is the workload generating? Joyent and LX zones see all cpus and memory of the host (regardless of cpu_cap setting as far I know) so your workload may have gone overboard when it seen the 32*4 CPU threads and 1.5TB of RAM. In particular, is the workload controlled by configuration to a realistic number for having access to only 8 cpus of work?
