Not for most situations.

I work over at orion, and our standard cloud VM's dominate dedicated hardware in IO. There really isn't much competition.

You find most of the 'virtualisation is bad for I/O' is either 'oversold I/O is bad for io' or 'Trying to push all IO for every VM on a box as well as all WAN traffic through one gigE port is bad for io'.
