Virtualization is actually a bit of a tricky thing with FreeBSD. There's Jail, which is excellent -- very light weight, but it only works with FreeBSD guests. There's VirtualBox, but that runs the guest OSes as a standard client application and it tends to be slow
VirtualBox is absolutely not slow. At least not on Solaris nor on windows7 boxes. The VB support from FreeBSD is not that good imho. It is a lot easier to get it going under linux, windows or solaris. I know, fbsd packages do not exist. I wonder why...
Running FreeBSD as a guest under most virtualization software works well
This is very true, I agree. I've set up a ZFS root system with four disks lately to try out before doing so on rela hardware and it worked very very well.
