I'd like to make a CentOS-based VMware server. Anything I should consider before doing so?

There's some good info in there. Beyond that, disable/remove stuff you're not using. Keep your virtual machine files on a separate partition (mounted with noatime) and if you're using raid, make sure you lay out the filesystem properly for block alignment. This will REALLY give you a good speed boost for vmware.
You can change some memory options in /etc/sysctl.conf, but these are more customized so you'll have to play around with them or google a bit.
