I have a few questions about virDomainGetInfo: struct virDomainInfo{ unsigned char state : //the running state, one of virDomainState unsigned long maxMem :// the maximum memory in KBytes allowed unsigned long memory :// the memory in KBytes used by the domain unsigned short nrVirtCpu :// the number of virtual CPUs for the domain unsigned long long cpuTime : //the CPU time used in nanoseconds }

When I want to calculate the cpu usage, which of the following is more accurate? 1/4 * cpu time / total time or 4/6 * cpu time / total time or just cpu time / total time

At this point, I'd suggest the best way of knowing what times are
returned is checking the source code; but patches to make the
documentation more obvious for the next person would be appreciated.
If you want more statistics, which might provide you with more accuracy,
you might also be interested in looking at the virDomainGetCPUStats.
