I'm not that much familiar with cgroups, but the way I understand it the
first VM does not get 100%, it will get 1024 shares out of 1536 (2/3 of cpu
time).

Relax buddy, this is a best-effort mailing list, not a commercial support
service.

It will get allocated 80 from the total of 6400 Host CPU. The number of
virtual CPUs is not related to the real CPU allocated.
