Also note, I've seen better worst-case performance by giving each

VCPUs, and the xen guys are not kidding about dedicating a core to the

core box) 
and giving dom0 only 1 vcpu makes a world of difference on heavily
loaded boxes.
 
This may be a dumb question, but is that any different from or the  
same as setting "dom0-cpus 1" in the xend-config.sxp file?  Are you  
specifying "cpus=1-7" in the guest's config or the Xen daemon's config? 
thanks in advance for clearing up my confusion,
