But if you're testing them both in a VM, wouldn't you consider this a valid performance benchmark for those looking to run their instance in a cloud VM? I mean, I think I get your point, in that this benchmark doesn't apply to those running bare metal... but isn't the obvious counterpoint that this is an especially useful benchmark for those running in a VM?

If you compare two things running on a VM you have to have a play-by-play idea of what else is running on the machine the VM is running on otherwise your test could be seriously affected by something outside your view.
