I use KVM on RHEL (not RHEV specifically) and the VMs (linux, windows,
*bsd, solaris) are perform very well. I actually couple this to Red
Hat's cluster suite and Linbit's DRBD to make the VMs highly available.
I've got this setup in production in several locations around north
america going back to when 6.0 was released, and it's been fantastic.
If you're interested, here is exactly how I do it;

All open source (and free-as-in-beer on CentOS)!
