Superb is using Ensim's ServerXchange product.
http://services.superb.net/sps/spslite.shtml
http://www.ensim.com/Products/serverxchange.htm
The Superb page mentions that you get 1/30th of a Intel P3 750mhz, so it's
not running on Big Iorn.
Perhaps Ensim is using vmware GSX or ESX server:

Does anyone have any insight to the particular solution Ensim is using?
Back on topic.... this really does seem like the right way to run reasonable
mod_perl hosting. Having root, you are able to truly administrate your box.
And the virtual-server-partitioning-software (like vmware) sets up real
Quality of Service commitments for RAM and disk space and even bandwidth.
Another user's out-of-control mod_perl server can't affect yours.
