You do realize that Fedora 14 is no longer supported upstream, right?
The Fedora folks won't support anything older than Fedora 16 at the moment.

I have no idea if this problem exists using modern kernels, or even if
you can use recent cgroup scheduling tunables (exposed via domain XML
here: http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsCPUTuning) to resolve
your problem.  But you are unlikely to get much assistance unless you
can reproduce the tests using more up-to-date software.
