Projects such as the Erlang VM running right on top of xen seem like promising initiatives to get the kind of performance mentioned (http://erlangonxen.org/).
I wish they open sourced it and let others look at the code and experiment with it. For a lot of developers if it isn't open = it doesn't exist. Now it is their code and they do whatever they want but that is my view of the project.
