Re: [Xen-users] Windows hvm slow performace

Should be fine - I've never had any issues with the clock getting off in HVM domUs, which would be one concern when virtualizing AD machines.  You can take a look at the Archives for the Xen Users Mailing List for performance numbers - there's been quite a bit of discussion on that in the past.

I use Xen to run Windows without any issues. I'm not doing anything real performance-intensive on the system, but they still work fine. I would install one of the PV driver suites that's available - GPL PV by James Harper is a good one.
