Oh, on another note, I'm curious as to how you've used iSCSI with Xen
(e.g. stability, scalability, performance). I ran the usual bonnie++
benchmarks to get I/O throughput, but from informal testing I get
slightly much better performance with NFS. And on reliability, it
seems that Linux is much better at handling NFS servers going away
rather than iSCSI Targets going away...
