I've got OpenVZ running on Gentoo, and I'm using Gentoo VPSs within it. Basically, I want to test out some software, but don't have a play system, nor do I bork my happy system.

Everything installed properly, all seems to be well. I first used SSH to connect to the VPS, and started to sync the local package management system with the main Gentoo one. After a few seconds, it hung. Killed the SSH connection, too. Had to restart the VPS to get SSH back. The second time I used vzctl enter to get a handle to the system. I ran the sync again, this time it succeeded. After that, I started an upgrade to bring the VPS up to date with the newer packages. This is when I started to notice the network problem.

Whenever I try to download files, it just hangs. I can CTRL-C the app, and try again. It'll snag a little bit more, then hang.

Here's an example of what I see (using wget):
Length: 28,254,232 (27M), 27,383,223 (26M) remaining [application/x-tar]
6% [+>                                   ] 1,845,163     --.--K/s  ETA 3:15:27


Any ideas?

First of all, check output of /proc/user_beancounters.
Are there any failcounters (last column) for your VPS?

I didn't get a chance to check, and I applied a patch found in the bug tracker. Things working quite nicely now.

Except for Java. Java routinely hits the limits of privvmpages.

which kernel version do you use?
if 2.6.16 then make sure that the following patches are applied:
http://git.openvz.org/?p=linux-2.6-openvz;a=commitdiff;h=500 ee5bfbc05a66477171729c638f3089f2fe876
http://git.openvz.org/?p=linux-2.6-openvz;a=commitdiff;h=e89 d47180be67cab080620479e4525ab133ff69b

also increase your privvmpages limit if needed.
