maybe i'm banging on open doors, but the same would be the case not only
for userspace-VM overcommit, but also for dirty data. I.e. there should
be (already is?) a per-instance 'dirty data threshold', to not force
other instances into waiting for writeout/swapout to happen.

or does the OVZ method assume a totally swapless system?
