The recommended solution to this issue is to set a priority for the UML
process. While not perfect, you can "nice" the process and give other
processes a higher priority. Several months ago I posted the source code
to a utility that allows individuals to chroot and "nice" processes. If
you're interested, it should be in the list archives.

Of course this doesn't address I/O contention. In terms of actual
"limits", I don't believe this is currently available with a standard
install. However, you may be able to do something with grsecurity,
selinux, or something similar.

Let us know what you decide on and how well it works.
