This is a good idea regardless. The current APIs require an application todo num = list number of domains for 1 to num lookup domain by id In the case of the Xen drivers, this requires O(n) calls to XenD which are rather expensive. XenD does actually have ability to return data about all domains in a single request. So if we had an API for fetching all domains at once it'd only require O(1) expensive XenD calls. I'd imagine something like this int virConnectListAllDomains(virConnectPtr conn, virDomainPtr **domains, int stateflags);
