Thanks Kevin. This was the answer I expected, so here follows my second
question:
By increasing virtual RAM, I'm afraid that the guest OS may detect and
use more memory, causing the host to pay the price of overcommited
memory being swapped on the host.
If the guest OS (let's say Linux) detects less available memory, isn't
there a chance it will try to use less memory?
My guess is that the OS's should distinguish between physical (fast) and
swap memory (slow) for better memory management.
Any thoughts?
