vCloud Director Maximums 1.5 / 5.1 / 5.5

When I troubleshoot issues, multiple customers inquired about vCloud director maximums, usually I refer them KB and Documents. I just decided to do comparision of both vCloud versions and post it here, I believe it should be useful for others and especially me for my own reference.

Please note that you cannot achieve the maximums in all categories at the same time, so make sure to understand how the limits apply to your use cases.
