you forget to mention it is a shared gig out to rest of network...
I cant buy 900 megs from VM to VM....
 
there is alot of overhead


I just ran the same tests on Vbox 1.6.6 and got

75Mbs with VT and using an internal network
84Mbs with VT off and using an internal network
97Mbs with VT off and using Linux host bridging
360Mbs with Xen 3.3

So this means networking could be worse but still I think that ESX is killing Xen and KVM is probably as well although I haven't backed that up with numbers.
