I had been running KiCad nightlies in a VMWare Windows 7 Guest on top of OS X about a year ago. It worked pretty well, no major issues. I blamed the occasional slowness to VM wonkiness and didn't let it bother me too much. I eventually switched to OS X native KiCad after I was able to get it to reliably build, and work, on OS X, and just the fact that the windows weren't "trapped" inside a VM window made me so much happier.
