It shouldn't make a difference to block devices. For net devices it still has
some kind of effect, but for block it's completely ignored.

Well, I guess Jim meant to say that you should copy data from the VBD into the
domU's memory?
Something like dd if=big_file of=/dev/null would achieve this, as a basic IO
benchmark.
But in any case... In an HVM domain you'll always be using the emulated
devices, unless you install PV drivers. In a PV domain you're always using
the PV drivers anyhow. The ioemu switch does not seem to have an effect for
block devices anymore.
