Perhaps in spirit? But I don't think you can term LXC a microVM, and I doubt they start close to as fast as Firecracker or smolbsd, and similar ilk. EDIT - appears I am probably wrong about firecracker being faster than LXC as LXC is kernel based virtualization and likely has faster startup than microVMs?

Firecracker would start faster, lxc would perform better. Firecracker should have better actual isolation... I think.
