Hi all,
According to the Wikipedia (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_platform_virtual_machines
) both VirtualBox & VMware server support something called 'Live
memory allocation'.
Does KVM support this as well?
What does this term mean exactly? Is it the same as "ballooning" used
by KVM?
I guess it referring to memory allocation on first time access to the
memory areas, Meaning the memory allocation will be made only when it
really going to be used.
Like, two guests, each with 2 GB memory allocated only use 1 GB of
host's memory (as long as they don't have many programs/buffers/cache)?
So yes, it's also supported by KVM.
I have amended

based on this thread :-)
Greetings,
