Hello,<br>F11 x86_64 + rawvirt with latest updates<br>I have a f12 near beta x86_64 kvm guest where now I'm doing "yum update" in it and basically I'm only in gui session without doing anything else<br><br>
Some strange things:<br>- in virt-manager set 400Mb for VM (both the allocated, change, max allocation values... btw how to use them???)<br>my guest sees only about 330Mb<br>[gcecchi@localhost ~]$ free<br> total used free shared buffers cached<br>
Mem: 344212 252944 91268 0 4268 26908<br>-/+ buffers/cache: 221768 122444<br>Swap: 950264 179092 771172<br><br>With dmesg on guest I see something like this:<br><br>
Memory: 329452k/409536k ...... 79696k reserved<br><br>The 79696k reserved seems to fill the gap... <br>is this a feature in f12 or based on it being a guest?<br><br>- As you see, the guest is swapping about 180Mb, and actually it is very slowly responsive.<br>
Shouldn't it use some of buffers/cache before swapping so much? Is this expected during a yum update (only 34 packages for an overall of 72MB)? <br>Or problem with F12 itself or virtualization layer?<br><br>Thanks<br>
