Re: [Xen-devel] Direct I/O to domU seeing a 30% performance hit
There have been a couple of network receive throughput
performance regressions to domUs over time that were
subsequently fixed. I think one may have crept in to
3.0.3.
Are you seeing any dropped packets on the vif associated
with your domU in your dom0? If so, propagating changeset
11861 from unstable may help:

In the past, we also had receive throughput issues to
domUs that were due to socket buffer size logic but those
were fixed a while ago.
Can you send netstat -i output from dom0?
