Dude, do *not* run test VM's on a production environment.
Why not? A VM is just payload for the system. If your production environment can't handle a test/debug/broken/untrusted/untested VM then it certainly doesn't deserve the title 'production system'.

Can you run a test install on your personal machine, using VirtualBox, or KVM or other tools, just to see if it works well with *any* virtualization toolkit?

I will probably get it up to 6.5 over the weekend, it’s pretty much because the host has established production VM’s running on the server,

Why 6.4 when 6.5 is out?
Also, you haven't mentioned what type of storage you are using, have you tried both IDE and virtio?

I was trying to load a FreeBSD 10 VM on my CentOS 6.4 machine, and it
keeps
hanging and not completing the boot. I have FBSD 9.x VM's running just fine, but if I try and load 10.x it's a no go.
Attaching to the console using VNC, I see:
gPXE (http://etherboot.org) - 00:04.0 C980 PCI2.10 PnP BBS PMM7FC0@20C980
Booting from DVD/CD... CD Loader 1.2
Building the boot loader arguments Looking up the /BOOT/LOADER... Found Relocating the loader and the BTX
That is it, at that point it just hangs. I have tried from 2G RAM to
6G
RAM for the VM, and from 1 to 4 CPU's, but no effect. The FreeBSD lists said I should load a newer QEMU-KVM, that there are much newer releases
but
everything I have seen claims that is not a good idea, that RH does
version
numbering much differently.
Has anyone run into this, or have any ideas on how to get past it, as I would love to load up the newest FBSD and give it a run as well..
