Hmmm... That's not so explicable. Obviously something in save/restore is

Could be.
Now that I repeated the save/restore a couple of times, total RAM usage
for dom0 jumps to ~700 MB sometimes during domain save (dom0 has now
about 2.3 GB RAM, domU has 1.7 GB RAM; 4 GB RAM installed now in the
machine).
The only thing I would expect could so dramatically inflate dom0's memory
usage would be caching of disc blocks from the saved image file. But we
added explicit cache flushing to both domain-save and domain-restore before
releasing 3.1. The flushes are only advisory though, so perhaps they are
getting ignored for some reason.
For your notice, I just saw 1.3 GB RAM usage when doing a 1.7 GB HVM
domain save :)
