so you mean that if you run it virtualy on an opteron 250 and run it normaly on an opteron 250 then the virutal process will run 8% slower?
or am i totaly not understanding any of your tricked out technobabble?
like.. can i run 10 virtual servers on a server and have them run just as fast as 10 normal servers (minus the 8%)?
or is all this "within reason" and you cant really run "as many you want" just "as many as your hardware can handle"?
within reason you can run as many as you want that your hardware can handle.
if they are running doing nothing they only take up memory, and that can be swapped out.
it's not magic, you don't get more resources than you started with, but you can effectively run different applications in their own vms with very little overhead.
