its no shame to ask for help when needed, especially when understaffed.
even if you have skills to take care of things its never enough and
when you have both work and a life its hard to share your time upon
everything to be equally if not adequately productive.

I'm an experienced sysadmin in Both Gentoo & Debian environments
(KVM/Qemu & xen) and would certainly be glad to help if need arise.

vm's are underrated/underestimated with proper care and tuning they
can perform really nicely.

KVM has its quirks but is relatively easy to pickup.

I would agree here that it is way easier and imho saner to go the way
dave suggests rather than have a VM do that work.

idem ditto.
