[Lxc-users] Container Filesystem in a file (loopback mount)

Looking to put "hard" limits on a containers filesystem size by creating a 
fixed-length file, putting a filesystem in it, loopback mounting it, then 
using that as the containers root ...

I've not tried it yet, but wondering if anyone has done anything like 
this? Any pitfalls? (Other than maybe performance)

Cheers,

Gordon
