I'd like to point out that libvirt is *not* a virtualization technology,
just a utility to help orchestrating VM's. Virtualization is (in
chronological oder as far as I recall) VMware, Xen, KVM, VirtualBox, ....
Then we have containers based on Linux kernel features called "control
croups" and "namespaces" (and others), orchestrated by utilities like LXC,
Docker, OpenVZ, ....
Libvirt, among others, is a utility which is, to a certain degree, capable
of controlling virzualization as well as containers.
To be honest, my biggst fear in this discussion is of getting a result based
on false assumptions and/or expectations.
Cheers,
Martin.
