I already have a bunch of proxyvms running different VPNs for... different 
reasons.

Unless I get a box with more ram or someone much smarter than me does one of 
those super-fancy <100MB RAM unikernel VM things, but for ipsec tunnels, this 
is the best option.

Besides, it's not a "high risk" VM or anything like that.
