Disagree!
1. FreeBSD has nothing like cgroups or namespaces. You can't apply cpu or memory limits to a whole jail, only individual processes in that jail.
2. it is early days for virtual network cards and ethernet bridging and jails: you have to recompile kernel to add VIMAGE.
- Sanddancer 12y agoYou've been able to apply cpu and memory limits to entire jails since 10.0 was released through the rctl mechanism.
- Andys 12y agoThanks. I don't think it changes my point - various attempts were made to implement this feature since Freebsd 6 - almost 9 years ago, for some reason these were incomplete or ignored. FreeBSD 10 was released only this year. For reference, Heroku began in 2007, using resource limits with LXC... a whopping 7 years ago.
