What version of Xen/LInux are you using? Are you stuck at that version of Xen/Linux or can you use a newer version? I've had more 16 guest running on Ubuntu 8.04 + Xen from packages. I'll be running some scalability tests on Xen 3.3 + Linux 2.6.27 soon, so feel free to ping me for the results if they would be useful to you.
