Hi everyone, I'm new to the list and I have a couple questions that we are wondering about here at work... we have notice that the KVM processes on the host take much more memory than the memory we have told the VM to use.. a ruff example.. if we tell KVM to use 2 gigs for one VM it will end up showing on the host process list for that VM like 3 gigs or more... Why do I ask this? well we need to figure out how much memory to add to our host server so we can calculate the number of VM's we can run there etc etc..
Can you give an example? A snapshot from 'top' would do. -- I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this signature is too narrow to contain. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
