In Xen's 3.0 documentation is stated:

"f you are running IO intensive tasks, its typically better to
dedicate either a hyperthread or whole core to running domain 0, and
hence pin other domains so that they can't use CPU 0."
http://tx.downloads.xensource.com/downloads/docs/user/#SECTION03400000000000000000

I am mostly running web servers, so it's IO intensive.

But I cannot find from the documentation how to actually accomplish this?

From RHEL5-beta documentation I found xm commands how to accomplish
this in running domains, but this should be set in the config file so
we can do the pinning everytime the guest boots, right?

Regards,
Peter
