Hi James,

I tested again using:
- Xeon X5450 @3GHz (same machine as earlier test), W2k3, single CPU,
ACPI -> iperf = 1.4 Gbps
- Opteron 2220 SE @2.8 GHz, W2k3, single CPU, ACPI -> iperf = 1 Gbps

So it seems that AMD or Intel doesn't matter much, and neither does ACPI
vs standard PC. The only thing that makes HUGE difference is SMP. Is
this a known issue?

Fajar

I'd be curious about DomU to DomU performance. Nobody seems to test this very often but if you have a database server or file server in a DomU that's serving out to another then DomU to DomU performance would be critical.

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use Windows."
Now they have two problems.
