Not sure if anyone can help....

I know CloudLinux is perhaps more suited for hosting providers, but are there any benefits to using it when you have one or two big and busy websites on your server and few smaller ones for personal use?

Are there any benefits to CloudLinux over CentOS?
 
Separation of resources in terms of limiting each site to N amount of CPU, disk and memory, ensuring that no single site can hog all resources bring the whole thing down..

Give the two big and busy ones more resources and the smaller ones less..

Okay thanks, that is how I understood it as well. I currently do not have that issue where any of my smaller personal sites have any material effect on my server. I was just wondering if there was anything else, such as security or performance enhancement that would justify the additional $20 a month for CloudLinux.
