The main objection to vserver from all the kernel hackers (and those of
us that have to support them!) is that it's a huge patch that touches
core kernel bits and it has no plans to make it upstream. Yes, it's
used in a lot of interesting places successfully, but that doesn't mean
it's a supportable-over-the-long-term solution. Scale has nothing to do
with long term supportability. And these laptops have to be supported
for at least 5 years.
This isn't a new discussion; it's been going on for months and months.
Just quietly, that's all.
