Hi:

I've a Xen installation setup with LVM and I'm wondering wich one
gives better performance: HVM domU or paravirtualized one?

Obviously paravirtualized. But if you are required to run HVM, then you can install paravirtualized drivers on HVMs which would bring you to a near paravirtualized performance.

Thanks in advance!
