you can measure ESX performance with performance graphs (cpu/mem) or with esxtop (directly from ssh/console)

Plan to upgrade is as following:

1. VC upgrade to vCenter4

2. ESX upgrade to vSphere4

3. VMTools upgrade

4. VM version upgrade.

this should help with VM upgrade process (should do backup of /etc/fstab, ip configuration) vm upgrade
