The original actually just rendered the entire footnote as italic, which is against our style guides. In my opinion, it also makes it hard to read. I had thought about just replacing the footnotes by moving the text someplace else, like a new subheading, or maybe pushing it up before the tables.

Some virtualization environments, such as older AWS EC2 clusters, use the XEN clock source. | ||
This source can cause performance issues because reading it requires an expensive system call to the hypervisor. | ||
In some cases, a XEN clock source has used up to 25% of CPU time when timers are in heavy use. |
