It's taken me this long to squeeze up the disk usage and move a 
customer facing web server to another host. I installed 
linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-686 today (it was the easiest step for me, 
just apt-get the package), and so far it appears that the problem is 
significantly reduced.
I've been doing a transfer, while also running wireshark in an SSH 
seesion on the DomU - it's taken a couple of minutes for the session 
to spit all the text out after the transfer finished. So I think 
there is significant buffering going on, but it doesn't completely 
kill stuff like it was (pings just go up to a few ms, instead of 
stopping altogether) - so it will do for now.

WANTED: "Software CD ROM Kit" for Canon CLBP 360-PS printer (Canon 
part no RH6-3612, or possibly RH6-3810, or RH6-3610 might do). I've a 
dead HD and need this CD so I can replace the disk and re-install the 
printer OS on it. If anyone knows where I might get hold of one I'd 
be grateful - requests to Canon drew a blank, it's been out of 
support for years.
Alternatively, if anyone has one of these and would let me image 
their hard disk ...
