That's the major selling point for Virtuozzo in fact. It's very good at handling server overcrowding because of how it allocates resources to those who "need it at the time". Using Virtuozzo, companies can put more VPS accounts on a single machine then they could with a VPS technology that uses fixed resource limits and doesn't allow resource swapping. There are lots of arguments both for and against this sort of resource swapping technology. Some folks feel that it's better because customers are less likely to feel it when hosting companies oversell their VPS platform machines, while others feel betrayed because they don't really get the resources they think they've purchased. I suppose it depends on what kind of user you are (heavy or light) and whether you trust Virtuozzo to decide what resources to actually allocate to you.
