In a TechNet blog Michael Kleef announced that the number of VM’s per logical processor (LP) has been increased from 8:1 to 12:1, a 50% increase of VM density.

The increased ratio is supported if all guests run Windows 7. This is clearly aimed at Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) environments on Hyper-V R2. During the keynote of TechNet Europe 2010 we already heard increased VM density per host by at least 40%.
