We learned to be very restrictive since the hosters public IPs are attacked all the time. So having only one firewall / reverse proxy is much easier to maintain/monitor and to make secure than every new VM which will be naked in the war zone ...

Therefore more than 3 concurrent Alfresco systems on one physical CPU makes no fun (+ 1 for Firewall/Routing). More RAM costs CPU power. So if we have e.g. a 100€ budget 1 PX70 is better than 1 EX4 but 2x EX4 are better than 1x PX70
