One more got'cha we need to fix is at some point in time xen stopped
honoring the MAXMEM setting and wouldn't let guests go above the default
mem setting.  This caused some of our xen configs to get overcommitted
(total memory size is greater then the memory on the box and upon starting
we'd have to xm mem-set some of the boxes lower)

I'm almost positive this is fixed now so we can go through, set mem to
something lower and have maxmem behave properly.
