I mean lxc was integrated into 2.6.27 kernel, this is october 2008 !!!, nearly three years from now, into the stable branch, but is not usable in production in 2011 !! > But it's already great to partition a modern server hardware into smaller > units.

There is already some _great_ features when you look at /cgroup directory (memory, cpu shares etc), I do not anderstand why so simple (user point of view) problems are not solved ! > Because this is a big application server farm with no user account, I may > tolerate such deficits in container/host isolation.
