Re: [Xen-users] Severe dom0 performance issues after installing Xen

["Niels Dettenbach (Syndicat IT&Internet)" <nd@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

...not shure what's going on there, but would try following things:

- try to boot with kernel options noapic
- try to pin one CPU directly to Dom0 and set max cpu to 1 on Dom0 (xen and 
kernel options)
- try to boot with disabled acpi etc.
- try to find out "what" is slow, i.e. I/O, CPU, net etc and what not

Is there any "point" to recognize during boot when the system "got slow"?


Best regards,


Niels.
