What sort of a use case requires you to run "lots of VMs"? What nature of development do you do?
- rwmj 6y agoSome of the software I write must work on various different Linux releases (with different kernels), FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Haiku and Windows. This is realistically only possible because I have all these running in different VMs. I'd like to add macOS to the mix but it's something of a pain to virtualize. I'm aware of hackintoshes but there seem to be a bunch of gotchas and it seems you can never upgrade them. I also have some VMs where I need decent security guarantees and confinement, such as running different web services.
