Hi,
I use XEN 4.x in production since years. I never had any problems with it. But
on the other side Debian and XEN is not bleeding edge. But it is well tested
and works out of the box (at least for me). At the moment I use it on 4 servers
and a 5th as test system. I use a self compiled and patched 3.0 Debian kernel
(I use the kernel source package from Debian unstable) because I need support
for SCST in the kernel.
