Hi All,

On creating a fully encrypted para-virtualised Xen guest system, is all the data stored on the hard-disk fully encrypted?  If so when is the encryption done.
The shared memory is used to communicate between dom0 and domU.  Is the encryption done before data is put in the shared memory?
Does not the whole encryption procedure slow down the system?
