Well, it _is_ a lightweight package, in a good sense.
You mentioned the simplicity yourself which makes it easy to audit and understand
what's going on.
Before I came across vserver in Nov. last year, I tried freevsd, usermode linux, selinux.
but neither was suitable for me. Vserver is a great and simple idea and the implementation is
getting better and better.
