In my tests of virtual box late last year, I found the network layer
extremely slow.  I was running a freebsd 9 guest in a freebsd 9 host.
Using the virtual network driver was practically zero improvement over
emulating the em device.  It was this reason I reverted to using jails
for my needs for now.
