Should work well. Apple is one of the bigger supporters of LLVM, so I'd hope OS X would be a suitable dev platform.</p>

Not much slower. VBox does an amazing job at getting near native performance on modern machines (those with nested paging etc.). This is definitely the best option if your computer has ~2g ram and 2+ cores. Give the Ubuntu VM 2g and 1 (maybe 2) core/s and it should be fine.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Also, look into seamless mode. It lets you use windows opened in the VM in the host OS. That sounds vague. Just Google it.</p>
