Arpan,

do you happen to have this problem with Windows guests?
I seem to get the impression that Xen (3.x) with Windows is not the best of
choices as far as performance is concerned. Am I wrong? Novell does offer a
(paied) driver pack to boost performance, maybe that's a decent "plan B".

Rgds,

Bart
