production quality as in "I will be happy to run my clients' stacks on this, and won't worry about being woken up in the middle of the night by pagerduty" - I have this right now, and although there are more things I want, the pricetag is too high to justify. I have been doing VM (and container) work since a one of the fist versions of VMWare blew my mind, but given the fact that things work well for me right now, there is no pressing problem to solve. It's a cool way to do things, and I am fully on board with the ideas behind it, but right now it simply doesn't solve any problems I have, and only introduces a ton of new ones.

There is no payback for the hassle...
