I'm running a similar setup right now...
I don't have it running on a machine with any important information, (bleached the machine, fresh XP install), but by every check I can think of it checks out pretty well... the machine it's on is a 7 year old retired business laptop on a shared wireless LAN. (850mhz-ish cpu, 2g ram, 60g HD.)
Now, I haven't 'pressure-tested' it with outside collections, yet, but I've had 12 static and 12 dynamic zones running all at once and notice no lag worse than the 'ol EQ servers had on rare occasion... even with a full group of characters and pets chewing up spawns in places like Befallen, Upper Guk, Blackburrow and the like.
.... and it might not even be 'lag' but all weapon and spell recharges lining up for a quarter-second of combat silence.
