I have a VM web server with 2-3 sites. Each site has it's own iP address but they are all on the same VLAN going to the same VSwitch. Currently all IP's are on 1 VNIC. Should I create separate VNICs for each IP/Site? Will that yield better performance?

Traffic isn't heavy, we have a 1 gig line and we are using about 300 megs per month.

Sadly there are not enough IPs for your perfect setup. Nowadays virtual host support is absolute requirement to get any IP space.
