Xen devel - Jan 2005 - MYSQL bechmark results on XEN and LVM2 and GNBD

Hi,

I''m using Xen 2.0.3 with LVM2 as root for domain-0 and dom-U, and also 
another dom-U on gnbd.
Kernel 2.6.10, custom config (kernel debug disabled), processor specific 
(Athlon).
Benchmark use official Mysql binary (static .tar.gz from mysql.com) and 
sysbench (http://sysbench.sourceforge.net/) OLTP test.

On the same physical server :

Domain-0, LVM2, 128MB memory

    read/write requests:                 180000 (755.68 per sec.)
    other operations:                    20000  (83.96 per sec.)

I understand the fact that GNBD is slower than LVM2, but is Dom-U supposed
to be that much slower compared to Dom-0?

Fajar
