Imprecise question sorry, I meant how do I get the perf.dat not how do
I disable the debugging.

Is this as good as I am going to get? It seems like I can't really
debug that lock contention without blowing stuff up because of the
load of the lock debugging...
Don't know if I mentioned this before, but those guests are each
pinned to a cpu (cpu guestnum%48) with taskset.
Cheers,
