It still will not satisfy what OpenVZ/Container folks are looking for: 100s of containers.
Right - so fake-numa is not the right solution for everyone, and I never suggested that it is. (Having said that, there are discussions underway to make the zone-based approach more practical - if you could have dynamically-resizable nodes, this would be more applicable to openvz). But, there's no reason that the OpenVZ resource control mechanisms couldn't be hooked into a generic process container mechanism along with cpusets and RG.
