thank you for the information this sounds good and gives me back some feeling that linux-systems will not raise their hardware-requriements over and over - ok modern systems have hughe memory but in case of virtual machines it has bad side-effects giving machines more memory they normally need because it is really used for caching pages and so the total amount of virtual machines per host will be degraded
