Hello,

Can somebody explain why the number of CPUs Xen can handle is limited to 32?
I have a machine with 48 cores, and would love to virtualise it, but if I do it, I loose 16 CPUs, which isnt very good... :-( Where is this limit coming from? Or maybe it is possible to change it somewhere in the source files?

Cheers,
Martin
