That is what I would suggest as well.  Preferably Qemu since VirtualBox
is no longer officially supported in Stable or Testing any more.  I have
found another Debian running in Qemu to be about as fast as on bare
metal and much faster than the same Debian version running in VirtualBox
even with all of their special modules.  Qemu does lack the ease of
mounting shared directories but I find SSHFS to be an excellent
substitute.
