Open Stack

no, that's not my question.

I'm already overcommiting, but now need to prioritize one instance above others in terms of perfomance.

Don't overcommit RAM.

Do you mean CPU prioritization? There are facilities to allow one VM or
another to have CPU priority, but what, if a high priority VM wants RAM,
you want to OOM the other? That doesn't exist, AFAIK.
