The real issue with nfs is not even the load, but its dependency on the
network. You have to first know the ipaddress of the dom0, and make sure that
nfs will export it to dom0 alone and nowhere else, and again, this becomes a
maintanance issue when move domU from one machine to another, where you have to
reconfigure everything. The problem I am trying to solve is mass management,
and it cannot be solved by manually fixing all the domUs. That's like some kind
of irony or something.
