Wouldn’t you want to run firecracker on bare metal anyways. Nested VMs come with a decent perf hit.

Thanks @jsolson for explaining

@bushbaba I wonder how large the percentage hit could be, if it's like 1% or 10%, if you happen to know

And how that percentage hit compares with gvisor performance wise
