Yes. It works fine. Linux thinks it has 4 processors. Note that none of the current crop of quadcore chips are really quad core. They are dual core where each core shows up as two instances (parallel pipelines and such). I have two quadcore machines (Intel) in production running Xen. Only one of my xen DomU's is set to use more than one virtual processor, though. Since all of my servers are I/O bound, I can't comment on the performance, other than to say it seems to be fine.
