Hi all ! We are making our first steps under Xen. We are working under Suse, and we successfully installed 4 virtual machines on a Core2Duo T7200. We have some special performance needs, so the first thing we tried is to share, on different configuration, CPU usage. To "touch" the results, we simply run nbench [1] The problem is that we always have the same final result, even in the following configurations : - nbench running only on Dom0 - nbench running on 4 VM, each one has 1 VCPU (each VM is "any cpu") - nbench running on 4 VM, each one has 1 VCPU (first VM in assigned on CPU 0, the 3 others on CPU 1) - nbench running on 4 VM, the first one has 10 VCPU, the other one have 1 VCPU (each VM is "any cpu") We really are getting crasy !!! Did we miss something ? How to be sure to share correctly CPU consumtion ? Thank you very much, Regards, gUI [1] http://www.tux.org/~mayer/linux/bmark.html -- Pour la santé de votre ordinateur, préférez les logiciels libres.

Do you agree that your test tool could be your bottleneck? Cheers, Marcelo Em 27/03/2008, às 11:16, Guillaume Betous escreveu:> Hi all ! > > We are making our first steps under Xen.
