Running UML efficiently requires a patch to the kernel that hosts the UML's, 
and it also requires significantly more RAM and disk speed than is otherwise 
needed.

If you use SE Linux then you get all the security benefits you would gain from 
UML and more.  But SE Linux is easier to manage and has less performance 
overheads.
