If you're using RHEL like I do, then from support perspective the
obvious answer is (currently) yes, as Redhat provides suppot for xen
guests, but not for kvm guests.

>From performance perspective, the answer is also yes as xen allows
paravirtualized (PV) guests which gives higher performance and lower
virtualization overhead compared to full virtualization methods (HVM
or KVM guests).
