Abstract: A technique is described for managing processor (CPU) resources in a host having virtual machines (VMs) executed thereon. A target size of a VM is determined based on its demand and CPU entitlement. If the VM's current size exceeds the target size, the technique dynamically changes the size of a VM in the host by increasing or decreasing the number of virtual CPUs available to the VM. To "deactivate" virtual CPUs, a high-priority balloon thread is launched and pinned to one of the virtual CPUs targeted for deactivation, and the underlying hypervisor de-schedules execution of the virtual CPU accordingly. To "activate" virtual CPUs, and thereby increase the number of virtual CPUs available to the VM, the launched balloon thread may be killed.
