Hi,
 
I have also virtualized Windows XP under Xen 3.4.1 RC8 Dom 0 Kernel=20 2.6.30 RC6 on OpenSUSE 11.1 Linux 32-bit Host.
 
Please see screenshots here:

Can I change the emulated display adapter driver in Windows XP HVM=20 guest under Xen to a better one so that I can play games?
 
Thank you!!!

Well for simple streaming IO tests you can use dd, it supports= =20 multiple

you need something more sophisticated.. bonnie++, ltp disktest= ,=20 fio, iozone
etc. Google is your friend.
