It depends on what you want to do.
To clarify, I would like to run Windows XP at least
VMWare runs WinXP beautifully - but unfortunately VMWare doesn't well
under FreeBSD.
Last time I tried Qemu it was fairly slow.
So Jail, Qemu and VMWare crossed off the list, any other options?
While Qemu is normally slow, there was a SoC project to add KVM
(Kernel-based Virtual Machine) support to FreeBSD - it uses the
virtualization features built in to modern Intel and AMD CPUs. It
speeds things up substantially. For more information go to
http://feanor.sssup.it/~fabio/freebsd/lkvm/
If that doesn't work then you could also try emulators/kqemu-kmod/ -
while it doesn't take advantage of the VT or SVM features in modern
CPUs, it allows Qemu to run a lot of code natively and so speeds things
up quite a bit.
