RE: [Xen-users] Network Performance issues on 3.1 - FC7
Windows drivers are included in the free Xen Express distribution. Look for a
tools cd image. I dunno if it is applicable to this issue, but installing them
allowed us to gain a bit of speed on network transmissions and disk reads. We
were using a fully virtualized Windows 2003 server domU on a CentOS 5 dom0.

The problem is that there are no Xen (Paravirtualized) drivers available for
windows that work with the opensource version of Xen..
At the moment the only solution is to run Virtual Iron, Xen Enterprise, or
Novell SLES, because there are optimized/paravirtualized drivers available
for them.
