Hah! Was already replying when your cc came in (thanks anyway!). Not quite an alternative to virtio-mem, more like a (in some factors) optimized alternative to DIMM-based memory hotplug + virtio-balloon. The core design of virtio-mem avoids basic issues related to memory ballooning. (it was the result of analyzing existing technologies and their shortcomings - including HV dynamic memory). -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
