Several 1000+)? I'm not sure, but I don't think so.

I saved a pdf from an "Intel Cloud Builder Series" webcast in 2010, that featured Parallels Virtuozzo. It says they deployed 120 virtual environments on a single 16 GB RAM host. All 120 virtual environments ran the DVD-Store LAMP Stack (I don't know, whether this is this DVD-Store (http://linux.dell.com/dvdstore/)) and the latency grew unbearable at around 120 VEs. You should look into OpenVZ/Virtuozzo, if you want to start know. Otherwise you'll have to wait until all the new stuff (e. g. Criu (criu.org)) have found their way into the main kernel. by Töns -- There is no safe distance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
