I haven't tried doing anything new or different - the main thing is that
you don't have to rebuild the kernel module on every kernel update - and
I think the clock may be more stable for the VM guests.

If you are going to change anything, you might want to consider
installing ESXi natively on the hardware and run even your main Centos
host as a VM under it. I have some setups where most of the work is
done on the Centos host which also exports it's home directory via NFS
and one or more guests map the same home directory for some specialized
things. I haven't decided if ESXi would be a win for that setup or not.
