The product of vCPUs, cores, and threads must not exceed 16

[Dasos]

Hi All -

I recently upgrade my CPUs to dual E5-2680v2 (10 Core w/HT) but it is not letting me alot more vCPUs to my VMs. Anyway to change this?

16 vCores is a hard coded limit in bhyve.

Why? That seems pretty strange when its common for systems to have many more core available than that.
