In a general sense, the issue you will see with Virtualization is if the hardware itself gets busy, you're VM will not get CPU cycles it needs. (%ACTIVE is the VMware term) If you can guarantee the hardware won't get that busy, you should be alright, but if there is a chance, it mgiht or you don't have direct control over the actual hardware, you could run into issues down the road.
