Hi all,
we use Virtualbox 3.x branch on a CentOS 5 server since 3 years and we had zero problem with this setup. This server virtualizes about 10 virtual machines and at least 3 guests are heavy utilized (2 of them are Windows AD Controllers/fileserver and 1 is a Linux mailserver running Postfix).
While I can not directly comment on module quality of the new 4.x branch, I run some heavy benchmark on Virtualbox 4.0 and I didn't notice any instabilities. As a side note, performance wise it was mostly on-par with KVM (link: http://www.ilsistemista.net/index.ph...on-rhel-6.html).
So this position from the kernel community seems a bit strange to me...
Regards.
