We still haven't seen the full node IDs of the changesets which I asked
for so it is not obvious that we are actually looking at the same range
of changesets...

xl man page? Perhaps we also need a separate /etc/xl.cfg (or whatever
the path is) page?

If there is anywhere on the wiki which recommends dom0_mem= (and there
should be) it should simultaneously mention this setting. As should any
"getting started" page.

On the other hand I'm not sure why autoballoon and dom0_mem play so
badly together. Surely if dom0_mem is used autoballon should just see
that there is plenty of free RAM in the system and not do anything?
