When is better to use chroot than UML

I am interested to know when would actually be worth to use uml than chroot in the case of running a single service. For example, I would like to run an IRC or a web server. Which approach would be better when you consider separately one of this factors:

-Configuration effort.
-Resources used (RAM, Hard Disk)
-Security

Any comment would be truly appreciated.
