You are most likely running out of the Xen Heap - in 32-bit it's
defaulting to 12MB, in 64-bit it's 16MB.
If you're using 64-bit, all you need to do is set "xenheap_megabytes=XX"
on the command-line for xen.gz in your boot configuration.
For 32-bit, it's a bit harder, as it's a "compiled in" option. You need
to change DIRECTMAP_MBYTES in .../xen/include/asm-x86/config.h to make
the heap bigger.
Since you want 128 VM's and you get 116, you shouldn't need to increase
it very much, just one or two MB would probably be sufficient.
