I retested this with 4 KB pages (guest & host), and it leaks about 3MB per guest in that configuration. So this *should* be perfectly reproducible for anyone using an upstream kernel. You just have to start of the order of 1000 guests to see significant amounts of memory disappearing (say 3+ GB). (Negative reproductions are also interesting, since it would indicate a problem with one of the hardware enablement patches we are using) Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.
