I know of lot of you are virtualizing our application, this recent article for SharePoint 2010 is a great reminder of best practices for Project Server 2010 as well: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh295699.aspx

Use hardware-assisted virtualization
Enable hyper-threading on processors that support this technology
Configure Non-Uniform Memory Access correctly
Configure the Hyper-V host for optimal performance
Maintain version compatibility for integration services
Determine storage options that are based on virtual machine roles and workloads
Configure general virtual machine settings for performance and stability
Do not use snapshots in a production environment
Design the virtual topology for optimal performance
Do not overload the Hyper-V host
Do not run resource intensive jobs on the Hyper-V host and virtual machines at the same time
