My advice would be not to use LXC since, as it exists today, it is not
secure. ie root within the container can break out & compromise the
entire host. This is not really the fault of OpenStack, but rather the
fact that the Linux kernel container support is still under development
and does not provide all the pieces required to form a secure solution.

This is all true, but depending on your environment and the level of
trust you give to your users, this might not be an issue....also if you
are testing on ARM server, this is all you have for now ;)
