What is your use case for doing this?  If you're using VMs to give
short-lived untrusted code an environment in which to run, it might be
better to look at Manta -- a hybrid storage/compute engine built on
top of SmartOS/SDC.  Manta keeps a magazine of pre-provisioned zones
around in which to run software on demand through an API; once the
code is done, the zone is rebooted and rolled back to a pristine
snapshot, ready for the next workload.
