This particular implementation of the timing attack uses the fact that OpenSSL is used as a shared library, so that the (read-only) lookup table is mapped to the same physical pages in every process using the library. That wouldn't be true in the "same-metal-different-VM" attack model (but it seems like it should be possible to extend the attack to that scenario).
