Like bringing honey from freezer to room temperature? I haven't benchmarked any 
of it, but for general purpose (i.e. GPU accelerated GUI) it's quite fine. But 
the gamers are still not all gung ho about it, so I'd think video editing 
demands would be much the same or greater possibly.

I'm a big fan of VM - that's all I use on my Mac. It's vastly easier to setup, 
maintain, and is safer data integrity wise too. But I don't consider it so much 
from a performance perspective.
