Hi Mark,
I am trying to do this on a desktop. I was hoping that since Xen seems
to be more intimately tied into the kernel
it would give me better performance than VMWare and VBox which only add
drivers to speed up things.
Any particular reason why Xen is not recommended for desktop environments ?

Hi,
I want to run Opensolaris as a domU on my linux box (ubuntu 9.04).
Is this possible and if yes, will it offer better
performance than VirtualBox and VMware. BTW, I don't want to change
distros, so it should be doable with Ubuntu.
What problem are you trying to solve?
If you are running it in a desktop environment,
you should use vbox.
If this is a headless server and you want good MP
performance and close to metal performance on
>= 1G NICs, you should use PV guests on Xen.
