Is it possible, and if so advisable, to run KVM and VirtualBox guests on the same host system?

I don't know if you'd do it on a server, but I have run Genymotion, a VirtualBox based Android emulator, on my desktop which was simultaneously running a couple of KVM VMs as an oVirt node. It's not a huge spec machine, performance was awful, but I don't know how much of that was because of resource competition and how much was because I was swapping.

Cheers, Dave.
