This is a rather curious path in the code involving rate limiting

the domains with a large maxmem than memory? For instance:
maxmem = 512
memory = 256
Yes, it does seem to help. I've recreated almost all domains with 16
MB 'headroom', now I can create domains up until the point I run out
of loop devices ;-) (6 domU's running ATM)
I'll reboot tonight (or shutdown all domains and reload the loop
module) and try to start more domains.
I suspected it would but I was hoping it wouldn't. Do this mean that
the netback driver needs to be able to increase it's reservation? If
so, should we be enforcing (in the tools) that memory < maxmem? Any
thoughts Keir?
