Ah yeah, sorry about that. I meant, without Xen you can get some
statistics of your server (load and mem usage, mostly) to determine if
you should run any more services on the machine. If either is too
high, you're probably better off using another server (or reducing the
load first). It's not something that is a clear yes or no, but at
least I've a gut feeling about it when I see the numbers.

Ah, yeah, I was a thinking about something like "vmstat -d" and a tool
like mrtg to display the activity. But I want to see the activity for
the complete machine, not just for one domU.

Any thoughts?
