https://lwn.net/Articles/644675/
Clear Containers leverage the isolation of virtual-machine technology along with the
deployment benefits of containers. The security of containers is improved by using Intel®
Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT). The optimization of key components results in
slimmer, simpler, safer and substantially speedier virtualization.
