I will not argue that using small partitions does not have a downside, more
administration. But you have to trade that off against other issues with
respect to managing security, job descriptions and all the other things
needed in an environment where each iASP is a unique entity and should not
allow access to it by anyone that should not. At that point your switching
50 pounds of apples for 50 pounds of oranges. Same weight for each sack but
different set of actions to take.
Pick your fruit and go with it.

In addition to the cost of disk and RAM pertaining to LPARs, what about the
cost of Power VM, an HMC, and perhaps more significant - the cost of
administering each LPAR (applying PTF's, S/W upgrades) etc?
