RE: [Xen-users] Terrible Xen 3.4 performance
Hi all,
I'd like happily to announce that I could fix the problem. I don't know how
exactly I did this, but it seems it was a memory and X problem. A friend of
mine told me to check the output of vmstat and what turned out is that the
machine was swapping too much. I set the dom0 memory to 512Mb and after several
X reconfigurations it works now pretty well. Hope this helps other too.
Thank you all for the quick responses,
Elisabeth

Hi Nikola,
thank you for your quick response. I tried to disable them but there was no
/lib/tls to be moved. Do you think this might be the problem - that i don't
have tls?
Thank you,
Elisabeth

Hi,
Try to disable the TLS libraries.
mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.disabled
Regards,
Nikola
