I'm not sure but I think everything is okay with your box. "xm top" shows
that your box run with 64Gb memory, and what "top" shows is that your Dom0
OS runs with 32Gb memory, which means your DomU's take the other 32Gb. Did
you up the memory settings in your virtual hosts configuration? After
doing so you should see the Dom0 memory to go down when looking at it with
"top".
