Hi Simon,

If I understand correctly, by "oned won't scale" you mean that it's not
currently possible to deploy multiple concurrent oned daemons and *not*
that OpenNebula isn't able to handle very large deployments (> 10.000 vms).

In my reply to Dmitri what I meant is that, once we provide a patch to
improve the xmlrpc-server performance, there's no reason, performance-wise,
to run multiple oned daemons. We've seen very large deployments, managed by
a single oned, and the only bottleneck we've seen so far is the
xmlrpc-server. Regarding OpenNebula and its use of the DB and the cache,
that's in fact one of the things that makes the core very fast.
