Right, dom0 is a Xen3 Debian.
OK, but that's strange, I read the opposite advice from you and Eric
Van Hensbergen : http://9fans.net/archive/2007/04/152
OK, it's 5 years old... I wasn't aware that qemu/kvm did such
progresses... what make this huge difference?
On the other hand, since 2009, I tried a lot Plan 9 over qemu+kqemu,
then switched to kvm (Intel vmx). Even if I didn't quantified the
benefits of Xen3, I really felt it gave me best perfs for both disk
access (fossil+venti) and when running as a terminal (graphics).
But kvm is to me far more simpler to setup (no dom0) and run.
