please try to avoid line wraps when pasting this kind of stuff,
makes it much more readable.

sure.
your (Xen) tcp stack is out of memory,
it cannot even send one more single message out.

in fact, according to the Mem-info given below,
your whole box is seriously out of memory.

may or may not be related to Xen.

maybe you can workaround that by tuning some memory settings,
or some tcp memory setting, or some xen setting.

probably you should just put more ram into the boxes.
1GB seems a bit tight.
