I wonder why you say this. I thought the benchmark was done very well.
What we need is more benchmarking, not less. Unfortunately, VMware
makes publishing benchmarks difficult as you have to get their approval.

XenEnterprise.
The person who did the benchmark might have done a brilliant job, but
it reads like marketing pamphlet for VMware. A good test show be
neutral. Show their best product against Xen's lowest offering is just
disrespectful.
As you say, the netperf test was silly, a good independent tester
wouldn't do something like that.
Vmware is very mature. I use both it and Xen and they both work well.
Xen certainly works better for some jobs than seems to be presented in
that report.
