More efficient hardware mappings will happen, and as a sibling comment says, power requirements will drop like a rock. Check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hz4cs-hGew for som…

UML and "as little overhead as possible" probably shouldn't appear in the same train of thought. I remember it from the very earliest Linux VPS providers, IIRC it only got semi-usa…
