Also fragementation cannot be used... Hmmm . . . that's interesting because they've got NUMCPUVPS set to 3. They've got a 4 CPU system. How much difference should this make? I'm guessing that OWS is having to do more context switching, rather than just flipping threads, but I'm wondering on a relative scale how much difference it would make between having only 1 and 3 CPUVPS.
