Where are you running ab? What connection from test client to your xen server?

Ddoes dom0 have a dedicated CPu?

Hi

I am running a web server in one of my xen guests. Using ab as a load generating tool i have collected some throughput data for different file sizes like 5KB, 10KB and 100KB. One thing that i have noticed strange here is throughput drops down in a virtual http server, it happends in case of 5KB and 10KB files.

Also it takes longer to run tests in virtual environment.
