I had some issues under vmware fusion. They were resolved by adding clock=pit [1] to the kernel boot params and switching to host-only networking, and running natd + ipfw on the host system. The vmware natd would probably also work. haven't tried myself. The clock=pit is the big kicker. Also, recompiling the kernel with HZ=100 might help to reduce the load on the host system. [2] Though, with a small number of vms/vcpus on decent hw the number of context switches probably won't have much of an effect.
