RE: [Xen-users] xen cpu affinity, ie; pinning cpus

For best practices use, is it better to limit dom0 cpu count to 1? Eg. if i have 2*quad core, is there harm to let dom-0 to see all cpus or is it best to limit dom-0 count to for example to 1 cpu?
I am currently limiting dom0 memory to 512MB using dom0_mem parameter, i also set sched credit schedurer weight to 6000 for dom-0 and for DomU's i keep weight atm at 256.
I would like to know how you are doing things, eg. pinning, dom-0 cpu count, dom-0 memory limits and weight distribution?
