Hello,<br>F11 x86_64 + rawvirt with latest updates<br>I have a f12 near beta x86_64 kvm guest where now I&#39;m doing &quot;yum update&quot; in it and basically I&#39;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&#39;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>
