OK, so I've got a Linux host, and a bunch of Linux VMs. This means that the host *and* all tho VMs do their own disk caches/buffers and do their own swap as well. That seems like a horrible duplication of effort, and likely to result in performance problems. I'm very annoyed by seeing the *master* swapping out portions of the VM's qemu-kvm procs; that just seems like a really bad idea. Are there preferred solutions here? I've considered turning off swap on the VMs so all the swapping at least happens in *one place*; I dunno if that's best. What I'd love is for the master to not swap or do disk buffering/caching, so all the RAM management is at the VM level, but I bet it's not really possible to do that. -Robin -- 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
