I got that email, too, and was initially very excited that cPanel was trying to do something to reduce idle memory usage, then I started wondering what the trade-off is going to be.
Is it going to be more CPU-intensive, have fewer features, or did cPanel just come up with ways to make it more memory-efficient? I can't tell from the email or the sales info. There's probably more info on their site/forums, but I haven't had a chance to look yet. It looks like there is time, because so far, it's still only in the "Edge" builds.
The other thing I don't understand is how the upgrade will be done. Are there two pathways to upgrade; e.g., non-VPS optimized and VPS-optimized, or once it gets into the release stage will all upgrades be the VPS-optimized version?
I guess it left me with more questions than it answered.
