- devwastaken 4y agoVirtualization is almost zero overhead in modern day, and is safer. Breaking out of sandboxes has many more areas of exploitation.
- xnyan 4y agoWindows sandbox overhead is quite low. I've played several games using it and the performance hit is in the low single digits, typically 2-5% in my experience. It's complicated but IMO virtualization seems to have less opportunities to fail vs a sandbox in terms of isolation.
