Hey,
1- Performance on a virtual machine is slower than on an actual 1120 appliance because of the virtual machine overhead. Performance of a virtual machine increases when you increase the CPU resources.

VM can be built into your existing vm infrastructure.
No additional hardware.
Revival of VM is easy.
2- Yes
