Yes, if someone is starting from scratch with this setup they should
seriously consider running ESXi natively on the hardware and run Centos
and windows guests under it instead of one OS native and the other
virtualized. The performance and management tools are very good,
considering that it is free as long as you don't want to manage them in
clusters.
