The fastest Virtualization solution for Linux

xen

Is it still XEN? Or is it VirtualBox, KVM, VmWare or else?

With fastest I mean that the guest VM is fast (the smallest speed loss because of Virtualization)

Best Answer

The fastest solution is generally the one that introduce the less overhead compared to a non virtualized environment. If you can cope with its "non OS diversity" limitation, that would be an OS level virtualization implementation. With Linux, that translates to OpenVZ/Virtuozzo, Linux containers (lxc) and VServer.
