What I want to do is to enable memory_sharing on my Xen. 

I search the mails. I find some guys discussed this before.
Does someone can give me some advises?

Appreciate!
Thanks.

This is great....

All VM's is HVM here...

Thanks

Memory Sharing 
allow sharing of identical pages between HVM guests
it‘s a feature of Xen, but it is under tech preview. 
I just want to enable this feature.

I want to enable it in xen 4.2 or 4.3. I don't know whether this works.
