Thread-topic: HDD-performance on HVM winxp
Hi together,

i'm running a winxp hvm-domain without the GPLPV-driver.

I imported an iscsi-target as a lun for the winxp-domain and
run an iometer test directly on the winxp-domain:

        Blocksize       type    MB/sec
        ------------------------------
        1 MB            read    25 MB
        1 MB            write   0.8 MB
        128 kb  read    25 MB
        128 kb  write   0.8 MB

If I run the same test on the xen-domain0 (hostsystem)using iometer's
dynamo, I got
        Blocksize       type    MB/sec
        ------------------------------
        1 MB            read    66 MB
        1 MB            write   55 MB

My problem ist the 0.8MB/sec in the winxp-domain...
Is there a way to track down the performance issue ?
