Re: [Xen-users] Xen Performance

Also note, I've seen better worst-case performance by giving each VM fewer

and giving dom0 only 1 vcpu makes a world of difference on heavily
loaded boxes.


This may be a dumb question, but is that any different from or the same as setting "dom0-cpus 1" in the xend-config.sxp file? Are you specifying "cpus=1-7" in the guest's config or the Xen daemon's config?

thanks in advance for clearing up my confusion,
