Yes it is, and its critical migration and hence has to be rock solid
stable.

> If yes, how do we go about testing it?

Use the dom0_op interface to turn it on (specifically LOGDIRTY mode),
then in the background call the CLEAN command every couple of seconds.
You should then run at least lmbench, ltp, fork bomb, ttcp, dd, kernel
compile over NFS.
