Err... for a comparison with Xen, see my comment here:
http://community.livejournal.com/openvz/2355.html
BTW, downloading FC5 right now (went through ALL of the FC mirrors and found a couple that were prematurely open)... Unfortunately, I don't have any FC4 VPSes at the moment to try and upgrade. 
Regarding VMware... I was an original purchaser of the 1.0 release... downloading it on the day it was released. Man, how many years ago was that? Anyway, I kept up with it for a couple of years (mostly to run Windows from inside of Linux)... but I have fallen behind as I no longer needed to run Windows inside Linux.
Recently though, I did download the VMware Player and try it out with a few Linux LiveCDs. Works great. It is rather annoying though to run VMware on Linux and have to rebuild the modules whenever a new kernel comes out. That's why I'm running VMware Player on Windows rather than Linux.
I use linux-vserver on a couple of Debian boxes at work... and it is so similiar to OpenVZ it is kinda spooky... although linux-vserver doesn't offer all of those resource parameters and has less tools.
