Hyperic Adds Xen Support

,----[ Quote ]
| My favorite new virt-specific metric: CPU % Stolen. Yup, it's what it sounds 
| like; thanks to the Xen/Linux base, the developers offer up stats on 
| over-allocated virt processors. Ever run into a clocked CPU in one of your 
| Xen VMs when nothing is really happening on the guest? CPU % Stolen 
| identifies the problem - and the thief. You’ll be able to see what other VM 
| is poaching cycles from your dedicated resource. This new stat is Xen-only; 
| Hyperic doesn’t have a hook into this metric for VMware ESX.

Microsoft stole Xen because it's part of the trend which makes Windows 'just an
app'.
