Andrew, avoiding effort is the only reason. Setting up Apache and bind
in jails on FreeBSD was not that easy the last time I tried it a few
years ago, perhaps the User Manual has been clarified.
I am casting a line to see if there is a 'reasonably trusted' source of
FreeBSD VMs, with jails configured, free for non-commercial use. As
for personal VMs, I would not trust just anyone's VM I would do some due
diligence.
I appreciate the risks of running un-trusted code on processors.
