Hi, exactly same story here, long time user of openVZ , even subscribe
to few Virtuozzo licences (VHS) to support the project
we've been waiting for ovz9 to no avail, nowdays that there's a RHEL
10, there might be an interest for ovz 10 !
anyway, we've moved to Proxmox, using LXC container when possible, that
works quite fine, I didn't notice yet a 2 times faster result from
PMX/LCX in regards to openVZ CT, but didn't took the time to bench .
it's indeed a shame, while Virtuozzo still claim :
/OpenVZ <https://openvz.org/> is a free, open-source virtualization
solution available under GNU GPL. *OpenVZ is the base for Virtuozzo
Hybrid Server*, the commercial solution that builds on OpenVZ and offers
additional benefits to customers./

Hi all,
I was an openvz and virtuozzo user and admin since around 2011 or so.
Since the company ended their support for OVZ, I've reluctantly
migrated almost everything to proxmox.
I still have containers on two OVZ VMs on Proxmox, but I'm about to
migrate their functionality away and shut down the OVZ VMs for good.
I did some preparatory testing and couldn't help but notice that the
OVZ CTs are still much snappier than KVM VMs or LXC containers. Even
with OVZ running in a VM, the network response time on the OVZ
container s is about 3 times faster than that of a KVM VM, and over
twice as fast as an LXC container.
A shame, really. This was the best virtualization platform. But life
goes on.
I'd be curious if there was any hope for OpenVZ down the road, or what
alternatives have been chosen in its place.
