Created an attachment (id=357)
 --> (http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=357&action=view)
patch to add usleep in io.c of xenconsoled

this (possibly ugly?) patch solves the problem for me by adding a usleep(100)
and thus preventing xenconsoled to go into an endless select loop and slowing
down the rest of the system. I never had the problem of xenconsoled really
crashing (terminating instead of just using 100% CPU) though, so possibly
someone who had this should verify this helps also in that case. See
Mailinglist.

At least I now can paste enourmous data into my console without hanging or
causing problems for Dom0.
