[Opensim-users] OpenSim and Virtual Machines

I've seen OpenSimulator run under different virtual machines (Xen and EC2).  Back a few years ago, there was a very odd 
issue when using EC2 where the simulator process wouldn't certain start context switching millions of times and freeze 
out all other processes, though that may have been a mono issue rather than EC2.

Other than that, it appears to work just fine as long as you give it sufficient CPU resources, as is the case when 
running on bare metal.
