No practical experience.

 From a design standpoint, it's architecture is overly complex and this 
is very evident when you use it.
It is STILL not in the mainline Linux kernel.

All this makes for a bad user experience.

KVM solves the same problem, with less fuss and IS in the vanilla Linux 
kernel.

I know at lest one person on this least which actually has code in Xen 
shares this view with me :-)
