I'd expect the numbers from the two tests you're running to be
identical -- and bottlenecked on the disk.  By a lot.

Hmm, my dom0 only has 128MB of RAM, and my dom1 64MB.  Wonder if I'm
getting bad behaviour due to small amounts of memory?

I was just happy to get my code working, but I'll dig deeper next week.

Perhaps one backend is hitting the buffer cache and the other is bypassing it?
