Hi all
I am using xen-3.4.1 with PV OS kernel 2.6.31.4 in FC11. When ever I try using a
guest as web server to fetch its data from different nodes I dont experience
enough speed even using 1G link on both sides. After running different bench
marks I have come to know that while using guest as a sender on 1G link
throughput goes down.

It should be the same or comparable in both cases. What could be the
reason?
