create/destroy causes all domu to briefly loose network



I've noticed in that there is a brief (about 30 second) outage across all
domu when one of the domu is created or destroyed.  This occurs even when the 
domu being created or destroyed is not on the network.

What is the cause of this and is there any work around to this behavior?
If not, is create / destroy only to be used sparingly to not affect all other hosts?

I am currently using:
xenkernel411-4.11.4nb3 Xen 4.11.x Kernel
xentools411-4.11.4nb1 Userland Tools for Xen 4.11.x

example:
