Simply upgrading to 7 might already give you a big boost in performance simply because the virtualization components are *much* more up-to-date. The qemu/kvm components - the heart of the virtualization - on RHEL 5 are positively ancient so I would not expect to get any decent numbers compared to todays standards.
