When using Xen and OVS a log flood occurs (approx 10 entries /s) when using stubdom based HVM guests with PV drivers. This issue was reported to the OVS developers (http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2013-February/025586.html) and a fix was merged for the 1.4.6 release. Please consider updating the Ubuntu package to incorporate this fix.
