I remember reading a few months ago about a virtual freebsd OS that
divides the memory and cpu up between different users.  Although this is
not Linux proper (or improper) it is one way of doing it.  I searched for
a few minutes and was unable to find the url, it was something like
virtualFreeBSD.org.

I've been running on a virtual FreeBSD server for years from iserver, now
verio.  Each user has their own apache conf, sendmail, etc. and they claim
to divide up memory and cpu usage.  I am not sure if virtualFreeBSD is the
same or different product and whether it would be useful for you, but it's
something to consider.
