That's interesting information... I didn't notice previously that you're still using build 75a as your dom0. Some /very/ significant fixes went into later OpenSolaris releases and I strongly recommend you upgrade, if you can. This won't necessarily help your problem with a slow SMP HVM domU, of course. We haven't found time to root cause the "SMP HVM Solaris is slow" issue yet, but suspect it's got a lot to do with usr/src/uts/i86pc/os/timestamp.c :) > Do you know if you have this issue when using Sol10u4 instead of snv_75a > for the domU ?? Well, if you're using nevada, you can use a PV domU, which doesn't have this problem. regards john _______________________________________________ xen-discuss mailing list [email protected]
