Maybe you should ask yourself this question: what is the cost of using a
separate server for your customers' VM, versus the cost of leaking the
sensitive information, if anything happens?

Side channel attacks are still a possibility, I think. Leaking
information via storage reuse is still a possibility, depending on your
storage. So onâ
