I'm watching your thread silently, however, just a comment, if I were you who to loose $5000 in one hour and passing 200 kEur in a day, I would have though three times on my system design. For such "realtime" business, I would be using load balancing failsafe redundant configurations (at least two machines) and sleep well at night. I also would have done extensive testing before I move all the systems to such Xen based configuration.

In such business, it can be deadly to use untested technologies.

Too many eggs in one basket...
