I was at a recent Linux convention and it seemed very likely that Xen is no
longer Redhat's priority at all and would love to put KVM in it's place. The
Redhat rep was very adamant about KVMs superiority over Xen and the amount
of unnecessary work to integrate Xen into their kernels. Some day when KVM
will actually do what Xen does (and do it reliably!) Xen may not be an easy
option.
