i'd like to do some performance tests as well as collect statistical

i know there are the 'native' tools like 'xm' commands or some
native linux commands like vmstat,top...
There is the 'virsh' too. (Now probably in FC5 only.)
xentop gives very good information but does somebody know how to
track xentop output over time (days) to a file ?
what i want to achive is collecting data about the usage of each
DomU, network statistics, performance statistics of the DomU's,
CPU/memory usage of each DomU as well as from Dom0.
any recommendations about tools ? any ideas about the xentop/top
output catching ?
See
libvirt.org -- there's python binding for libvirt, so you can
write a script which will collect some statistics.
I think that you can work with virtual domains like with normal
physical machines. It means you can try collect data about it by some
monitor tools like nagios or whatever.
