Hello!

I'm not sure what the issue is, probably you want to know about the
behaviour.

DevCloud2 requires minimum of 1G RAM but then mgmt server should not be run
inside it. The defaults should work out of the box for any host with AMD-v
or Intel-VT enabled processor. Another thing is the memory you're seeing in
DevCloud2 is the memory consumed by dom0 since it's actually Xen running on
top of VBox. The dom0 for security and memory limits purposes was been
limited to use only upto 500M max (see /etc/default/grub [1]) and rest is
used by VMs etc.

Hope this helps to understand the behaviour.
