Glad to hear it seems to be working for you.
I use it on our company servers and also for controlled development &
test environments on workstations. It's also really handy to be able
to perform selective backups on several VMs from a single filesystem
namespace on the vserver host.
Also using KVM/VirtualBox makes my laptop uncomfortably warm :-)
I keep meaning to try out openvz but haven't found the right opportunity
yet.
