Pre-sale inquiry about UML setup at linode.com

Hello – I'm not yet a customer, but one of my co-workers is, and I am quite sold (and impressed) on the linode.com setup!

I'm curious about something, though.

Which is linode.com's UML setup based on -- processes or kernel threads?

I've run both UML setups on my laptop, and I've seen the performance hit when using processes-based UML setups in certain circumstances, so I'm curious about which model linode.com uses.

Thanks!

The only viable method of running UML in a shared environment is with the SKAS mode, since TT mode is NOT secure at all. TT mode also is about 10x slower than SKAS.

Hope that helps,

Makes sense, and thank you very much!

I'm even more impressed on the turnaround time, too. :D
