I run a few of these (not one per client though) on a single machine
with virtual servers.  This is very light weight virtulization in
which you run only 1 kernel and it basically is multiple chroot jails
with their own startup and ip addresses.

Another choice is openvz. Both require the system to boot under a
patched kernel.
