Ok, I understand your concern of oversubscribing the hardware, but this is the only guest vm on the host, so its not a problem. The host is never even close to oversubbed when the UTM is starting to bog.
The guest vm has 8 sockets with 1 core per socket. This is all irrelevant, because vmware is just assigning cpu time to the guest. It makes no different if you assign 8 vcores and 1 core per cpu or 4 vcores and 2 cores per cpu. You get the same end result, as vmware is giving it the same about of cpu time.
"Give it 6 ghz of power" I don't understand what you mean with this.
The UTM shows that I have 21.28 Ghz of power.

Yet still when we have issues with web browsing the http proxy is only using 2x 2.66 ghz of cpu as seen in the utility TOP. And never goes above 199 %, which is two cpu's.
