Multiple unbound instances

[Miguel Miranda]

OK thanks. I have read the performance doc,  So I have two servers that are
serving 250k customers,  it is recommended that I configure 10g for cache
in one instance?  I have 16 cores (with hyper threading) in each one.
Should I configure 8 or 16 threads?
