I don&#39;t have any benchmarks per se just my recent testing of them.... <br><br>I think xen is still on top in terms of performance and features....now having said that my experience in the past with kvm and my latest testing with 5.5 and KVM I can say that KVM has made great strides with the virtio drivers for the disk and nic, my latest vm&#39;s that I am using with those drivers are very snappy and so far I am very pleased.....I&#39;m a big redhat fan and think that KVM will only continue to get better and I believe at some point will equal or pass xen....I&#39;m waiting for rhel6 to see what they are going to be rolling out...I have not had any time to play with the beta or look at fedora....<br>

hi guys,<br>
<br>
Just wondering if anyone has done any performance testing between kvm<br>
and xen on CentOS-5 ( using centos as host and vm in every case ) ?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
