I think it's a good idea. If your domU load is CPU-intensive, dom0 may
not need to run often. However that is often not the case, and each
domU may frequently need to perform either disk or network I/O. Dom0
needs to be scheduled on an available CPU to complete that I/O, since it
hosts the driver backend.

Take a look at "xm vcpu-list".
