I was speaking about apache virtual hosts. I was concerned that there was an 
increase processing time due to the solr and nutch instance being housed inside 
a virtual host as opposed to being dropped in root of my distro.

Thank you for the astute clarification.

I think you guys are talking about two different kinds of 'virtual 
hosts'.  Lance is talking about CPU virtualization. Eric appears to be 
talking about apache virtual web hosts, although Eric hasn't told us how 
apache is involved in his setup in the first place, so it's unclear.

Assuming you are using apache to reverse proxy to Solr, there is no 
reason I can think of that your front-end apache setup would effect CPU 
utilizaton by Solr, let alone by nutch.
