For example: A number of virtual machines are pinned to a single CPU and 600 seconds of CPU time are available. Four of the virtual machines have load and about 300 seconds of ready time has accumulated, so you can expect a slowdown of approximately 50 percent. An event with a response time of 1 second could be expected to take 1.5 seconds under that level of load as a direct result of the delays caused by the ready time. This is not atypical for observations of multiuser systems under load. The same factors apply to an ESX® Server host running multiple virtual machines. Also, the more virtual CPUs the VM has, the more CPUs have to be free, or the VM may have to wait longer for x number of CPUs to be free.
