Hm, I thought it did use cgroups.. will have to read more about the internals. I know it can do resource limits and permission management so I assumed it was doing that with cgroups. Using cgtop I can see them.

It does setrlimit() but that is a separate older mechanism. I don't think it does cgroups. At least the man page doesn't say anything about cgroups.

I didn't realize it did the networking stuff. It does have a lot of options.

Nspawn is pretty wild. There is very little googling it and to learn it just means reading man pages and fiddling around. I see it has some cgroups code in it tho..
