Dear All,
    
     I have managed to virtualize Windows 7 32-bit as a HVM guest on 
Xen 3.4.1
    
 RC8 Dom 0 Kernel 2.6.30 RC6 on OpenSUSE 11.1 Linux 32-bit host 
operating
    
 system.

 I have uploaded 24 pictures so far at the time of this writing.

 Well for simple streaming IO tests you can use dd, it supports 
multiple
    
 block sizes, O_DIRECT etc.
    
    
 If you need multithreaded/multiprocess tests, or filesystem IO 
tests, then
    
 you need something more sophisticated.. bonnie++, ltp disktest, 
fio, iozone
    
 etc. Google is your friend.
