Is it difficult to share resources on a virtual dedicated server?

Sharing Resources on a Virtual Dedicated Server

If you have decided to use a virtual dedicated server, instead of a regular dedicated server, you may be surprised to find that you must share system resources (like the CPU and memory) with other users.
The good news is that, with virtual dedicated servers, the file system is setup in such a way that you cannot distinguish if someone else is currently using the server and it will act pretty much like a dedicated server.
The CPU, Memory, and other resources on a virtual dedicated server are setup in such a way that each user is only allowed to use a certain percent of them. This way, you can always access your resources anytime and they are always available to you.
