Not only will this bring advantages, but it is the only way you can get Xen to run HVMs - any O/S that isn't Xen-aware, like Microsoft Windows (wow, is that really the only one left these days??). So, if you plan to run Windows or some of the earlier versions of Solaris on Xen, you'll definitely need to switch this on. If you're only going to be running Xen kernels for Linux, Solaris, BSD, etc., then you don't need it, but you won't lose anything by turning it on. -Nick
Trust me, it's not the only left that's not Xen aware. Anything with a Linux 2.4 kernel, for example, is likely to require full virtualization.
