Performance of Xen against Xenserver


I've been trying to ascertain whether there is any performance difference between Citrix's Xenserver and the Xen kernel in Redhat EL/Centos. There doesn't seem to be a performance improvement with Xenserver, even though it appears to be a "bare metal hypervisor" like VMware's ESX. Does anyone have any comments ?

Well the RH Xen Interface works like this:

Control interface
Safe hardwareinterface
Event channel
Virtual processor
Virtual memory management unit (MMU)

You NEED native device driver for it to run.

Let me know if you need a hand with it, or supporting it.

Grow up. You've made three posts, all of them to do nothing but advertise, and just clicking "View New Posts" shows what you've posted, no 'stalking' involved.

If you're not going to actually answer questions here and ignore forum rules, you actually are NOT useful in this context.

Your entitiled to your opinion im entitled to mine. Lets get constructive here, what do you actually know about Xen? particullary how RH utilises Xen? Dont cheat and google lets be civil. Or you can just go back to using Kali as your daily driver and try and get things done on a daily basis.

Again, grow up. What I know about the differences between the two are large, and if you know so much why don't you actually answer the question, rather than posting a spam link to your website, trying to advertise your business??

And no idea where you're getting I use Kali on a daily basis, nor is what I use anything I need your help with.
