Thanks for the explanation.

Yes. I did it. Is there some manner to setting the vcpus for the dom0?

If it cannot be automatized in boot time, then a script could perform
this work:
xenhost1:~# cat vcpu-pin
#!/bin/sh
echo -n "Pinning domUs..."
/usr/sbin/xm vcpu-pin 1 0 0
/usr/sbin/xm vcpu-pin 1 1 3
echo "done."
xenhost1:~# update-rc.d vcpu-pin start 40 S

Interesting... but I'm not sure if I have understood the difference
between the vcpu-pin use for the dom0 and dom0_vcpu_pin boot argument.
do they produce the same result but dom0_vcpus_pin is a Grub argument?
