Inception!

Has anyone had any success running a Virtual host inside a virtual host? If so, what sort of performance hit did you get?

I want to set up a virtual server temporarily on my machine for a friend to use but he needs to use virtualbox within it.

Yo dawg, etc..

Great, although there's no mention of say, VMWare Workstation inside VMWare Workstation. I was planning on using VirtualBox in all honesty so would be interested to hear of any success stories/pitfalls with it.

I'll give it a go myself tonight but any advice is appreciated. I take it the tools will have issues installing/working in any case.
