The first revs of 4 crashed a lot with APCI or sleep mode on a Windows 7 guest
but that seems to have cleared up. The Windows Thin PC release candidate had
some memory leak problem, however, but I don't know if it'll be fixed in the

Yes, I have tweaked the block sizes on my virtual box guests zvols to get
the desired performance.
there are two factors that you may want to look at:
1) block size. files default to a 128K allocation block size, while
zvols default to 8K.
2) check the sync property; the zvol may be
Currently I'm running OI 151 as a Xen 4.1.1 domU. While I have a
couple of other domUs on this server, the OI domU is my 'main' VM.
Because of this, I'm thinking of redoing the machine and installing OI
on the barebones hardware, and then using VirtualBox headless to run
the other VMs when I
Not vbox on OI personally, although I did run vbox on centos5.4 with no
