Can you explain what you mean by 'persistent' - where do you intend
to store the guests memory?
Also, remember that you'll need to save/load the device state
as well as the rest of RAM.  If you've got a way to preserve
RAM then maybe hte xen-save-devices-state qemu command could be
used to store the rest of devices.
