We have host-machine running Debian 6 (kernel 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 ) with Xen 4.0 on it there is mdadm-raid 10 and LVM on top of it that are use by Xen virtual machine On host system disk write speed test with dd shows 86,7 MB/s On Xen we have virutual machine with Win2008R2 PV drivers are installed So on this Win2008R2-system disk write speed test (performed with hdtune) shows 4 MB/s And in short disk read perfomance comparing host to guest systems is reduced for about 10 times. Can anybody please explain why disk write/read speed is reduced so much with Xen?
