the probably strange question is, why would you want
to use unionfs, when you can have unifiation, which
usually suits the linux-vserver guest setup much
more than some overlay filesystem?
typical advantages over unionfs:
- less overhead for access and modification
- reduced cache usage (hardlinks)
- can be re-unified at any time
- does not require patches or modules
