In other words, if I have a machine with 6GB that runs, lets say, 4
domU's which need 1GB each - should I give the remaining memory to dom0
or distribute it between the domU's?

I believe the answer to your question is that the memory should be
given to the unpriveliged domains, not domain0.  At least that is my
best understanding of the situation...
