Yes, I am running on a SMP system with two CPUs. The nodes are running on different CPUs, but is this a problem? If the two guest OSs are unprivileged and run on separate CPUs, they should perform I/O just as good (or bad) anyway, no?

Cheers,
Rune

Are you running on SMP systems? I would guess the performance differs
based on whether DOM0 and the unprivileged guest are runnign on the
same CPU or different CPUs...
