Actually really well,

The cost isn't really based on how many containers but how many LSMs
are registered and how nested we are.

How we are currently handling it is apparmor is registered once, and
it is responsible for looping on its bounding. So for tasks that are
not in the container there is no additional cost.

For tasks in the first container, there is an extra cost of enforcing
the extra layer of apparmor policy loaded in the container. If you do
container in container there are two extra levels of apparmor policy.

This does rely on apparmor doing its own namespacing and bounding. LSM
stacking just allows us to start doing this with apparmor containers
on smack and selinux based systems.
