    William said: kernel 4.1.1

    thats what... 3 days old?, I don't think I need to elaborate more than that, maybe if that becomes mainstream in 6 months I will change my opinion, can you alter the number of cores and ram in real time rebootless on that setup, just curious?

    That's quite an oversimplification. How come the guest kernel can use kernel addresses?

    And why is it even a drawback that they run in "user space"?

    Performance-wise right now main thing is the number of context switches needed to get to real I/O.

  • what you think about freebsd's hypervisor ?
    Named "bhyve".
    In comparison with kvm.
