Statements like this aren't particularly productive.

I've been running PV Xen in production for almost 2 years with no problems for a small set of high load systems. 

Xen itself is probably not easily manageable for a large install.  Something like Virtual Iron which is Xen-based and has a very nice look node PXE boot management system with HVM live migration might be better right now.

But Xen certainly works well enough for PV based linux server production work.

If fact there was just some messages on the devel list with some guy talking about 5 9s with Xen.
