There's no rate limiting on inter-domain communication (unless
you explicitly configure something using 'tc' in domain 0, as you
would for controlling a domain's external network bandwidth).
However, by default this isn't a super-optimised path, and will
burn more CPU than talking out over a real network.
If you want to get fast inter-domain communication, configure a
direct netfront to netback communication path between the two
domains that doesn't go via the bridge in domain 0.
I'm not sure this can be configured without hacking the current
xend, but its certainly something that the drivers are capable
of. It's certainly something we'd like to support.
