[Xen-users] xenstored is doing a lot of IO



Hello,

I see that the "xenstored" process is doing a lot of IO, here is the
output of "iotop" :
==========================================================================
Total DISK READ: 0.00 B/s | Total DISK WRITE: 1856.17 K/s
  TID  PRIO  USER     DISK READ  DISK WRITE  SWAPIN     IO>

    2 be/3 root        0.00 B/s    0.00 B/s  0.00 %  0.00 % [kthreadd]
==========================================================================
The machine is quiet (except for me writing this mail), so the IO level
is not understandable.
At the time of the image there were only disk writes but there ara
sometimes disk reads.

I get also "strange" messages in xend-debug.log :
===========================================================================

System : AMD 905e (Quadcore) Ram 8G, some disks
Distro : Debian squeeze "locked at a stable state"
Xen : 4.0.0 locally compiled
Kernel-xen : 2.6.31.4, 2.6.32.11

Any ideas ?
