In my experience xen 3.x has lots of bugs that the developers have not
yet found time to address, whereas xen 2.x has lots of bugs that are
either known about and won't be fixed or are unknown and won't be
investigated, since 2.x is effectively obsolete now.
So personally I wouldn't downgrade to 2.x except as a last resort.
Unfortunately for me the hardware I'm having most trouble with will
not boot at all under 2.x and just memory leaks itself to death
under 3.x, so... :)
At least using 3.x your bug reports can do some good.
