Thread-topic: Smallest Memory requirements for Dom0
All,

Has anybody tried to get Dom0 memory footprint as small as possible.  I was 
thinking of building a cluster of PC's (I have 20 or so P4 2.4Ghz 1GB RAM 
machines sitting around) that would be dedicated to Xen.  I typically run each 
DomU with 1GB memory.  I was hoping I could get Dom0 down to maybe 64Mb?  Has 
anybody tried this.  Would there be any performance impact?  I plan on doing 
absolutely nothing in Dom0, solely run Xen.

Darren
