I haven't been able to get qcow2 to work :D
There were always some bug here and there, which is why I use LVM or
zfs snapshot/clone.

To tell the truth, I haven't tried starting all domUs at once (never
had the need to). I did, however, run a scalability test by starting
lots of the above initramfs-based domU config using only 16MB memory
each. With that setup, I was able to run over 300 domUs
simultaneously. At that point, xenstored uses 100% CPU on dom0, and
starting another domU takes over 10 seconds, so I stopped it there.
