While I agree that User Mode Linux is definitely capable of running an Asterisk system, I do it myself, it certainly isn't the best performance. XEN smashes UML in performance. For example: Kernel Build Times Raw Hardware 5m5.993s Xen Admin Domain (dom0) 5m19.758s Xen User Domain (like UML) 5m49.133s UML 15m24.464s Michael Greb
