For VoIP, latency can be an issue, but the amount of latency from adding
VM networking overhead isn't a big deal (because other network latency
will have a larger impact).  10ms isn't really a problem for VoIP for
example.

The bigger network concern for VoIP is jitter; for that, the only
solution is to not over-provision hardware CPUs or total network
bandwidth.
