That might actually be nothing to do with xen. Dovecot provides a very 
successful way of hammering the file locking code, and you might just be 
exposing bugs or race conditions in the underlying kernel rather than the 
xen specific code. I suggest you check to see if the processes involved 
are waiting to access locked files.
