I know a good way to make a process make the most of the hardware and play cooperatively with other processes: don't use virtualization.

I will never understand the whole virtual machine and cloud craze. Your operating system is better than any hypervisor at sharing resources efficiently.

After reading the README of virtualization tools (and looking at the author) I discovered the benefits of using them. I recommend also giving that a try.

I do have to use it since someone early on in the company I work at decided to do everything with AWS and Kubernetes.

The fact of the matter is that it's just inefficient, slow and expensive.

Bare metal is simple, fast, and keeps you in control.

bare metal has high capex and low opex

cloud vms have low capex and high opex

which one is more expensive is a function of many variables
