It seems dom0's memory got under pressure from the other domUs.
Make sure to set an absolute minimum of memory for dom0 in xend.conf or using the boot option (forgot what it is). I always made it to the OS min of 256MB, but if you are doing more in dom0 you'd want more.
On a side, I might run all management apps in a VM and manage dom0 from that domU.

I already set dom0 to 512MB, but it seems it might not be enough. I was hoping I could optimize it a bit more though
Try setting the max as well, then it's memory allocation is fixed, say 512/512. Then the only memory pressure is between apps in dom0.
