Sounds great. :) It's probably that 3com card then that's nailing the cpu.

Anyone thought of starting some kind of wiki for xen yet? If not, I'm
willing to toss up some space as xen.terrabox.com and an install of
phpwiki.

I'm definitly looking froward to the new scheduler's controls. I'll wait
as pantiently as I can (heh, bout as good as a kid in a candy store. ;) ).

Thanks guys!
Again, Xen and ya'll rock!
