Jeff Would you agree that UML is faster than hypervisor solutions? Thanks Brendan Will Morton wrote: Hi Brendan; A hypervisor is a program that emulates a computer's hardware, allowing an unmodified 'guest' OS to run within it. UML in contrast is a modification of the guest OS kernel to allow it to run as a user-space process.KVM (http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki) is a Free linux-based hypervisor, and can run linux or windows (and I presume any other x86 OS), whereas UML can only run, well, linux. The price of this flexibility is speed; UML is much faster than any other virtualisation solution I've tried.
