now that you mention...

the recent problems about low performance NFS between two domU's, and the 
usual "turn off checksum offloading" advice makes me wonder if ethernet-level 
virtual networking might not always be the best option.

what about a tap-based paravirtualized driver? (instead of the current 
tun-based one)  would that be faster for inter-domU's networking?
