Hi!

Is OpenVZ Kernel slow?

When i'm running unixbench-4.1.0-wht-2 on the Host Machine with a non OpenVZ 2.6.27.18 Vanilla Kernel i get the following results:

                     INDEX VALUES            
TEST                                        BASELINE     RESULT      INDEX

When i install OpenVZ 2.6.18 or 2.6.26 Kernel and run WHT i get something like this:
                     INDEX VALUES            
TEST                                        BASELINE     RESULT      INDEX
