One possible reason is the lock contention at the boot time. If the lock holder
is preempted unexpectedly and lock waiter continues to consume cycles, the
boot progress could be slow.
Which kernel version are you using? Does a different kernel version expose
same problem?

So this phenomenon is intermittent? In your earlier mail A is back to normal
after you destroyed B/C/D, and this time the slowness continues.

Are there any hard limitation you added from the configuration file? Or do you
observe this weird affinity all the time or occasionally? It looks strange to me
that scheduler will consistently keep such affinity if you don't assign it
explicitly.
you may want to run xenoprof to sampling domain A to see its hot points, or
use xentrace to trace VM-exit events to deduce from another angle.
Thanks
