Yes, the above settings of (fillrate/intervall) should achieve this.

But what happens if the third vserver falls to idle? In the solaris case the
remaining two vservers would get 2/3 and 1/3 of the cpus (if the host ifself
is idle as well).
In the vserver case we get idle time now: 1/4 with the values above. Then this
idle time is shared amon the three vservers according to the
(fillrate/intervall)_2 for idle time? Well, I don't think this is the same as
in the solaris case. (I mention the solaris case here because in some use
cases this makes sense, not because I think it is superior. I want to get my
understanding of vserver-scheduling right.)
Where can one enable the idle time token bucket? The user-level tools don't
seem to have support for this.
