Let’s say i have a reasonable hardware and want to create an n number of virtual machines inside eachother for no particular reason but to experiment, i have a few questions:
What would be the best way to approach the problem?
What are weird problems that i would encounter?
After how many levels would my computer become unusable?
Would the loss of performance from a level to another be linear or exponential?
What’s the deepest level of nesting reached?
Each new VM would get a smaller and smaller amount of resources available to it, and as you nest VMs, things start slowing down due to overhead. Think of a hallway. You have to take messages from one end to the other end for instruction processing. Each further nested VM has a longer and longer hallway.
