in the Tor VM experiment from years back (2007) Qemu was used because it could be run as a restricted user once the Windown Tap and Pcap drivers were installed. throughput was poor, and this is the crux of a non-admin virtualization environment - performance demands privileges! less a problem for headless network appliances - a real big problem for interactive graphical user interfaces... best regards,
