It is common for virtual memory OSes (like Solaris) to save some least used
memory pages to swap file (so-called paging--not swapping) and this is what
you observed. I no longer use Solaris 10 but for ZFS cache it prefers to
page in order to satisfy as big ZFS cache as possible. Maybe you want to

Well, if you were VirtualBox how would you archive this BTW? I am not an
expert so I may be wrong but VirtualBox is in the end just an OS process and
it is OS'es job to do scheduling and not VirtualBox...

Good question! Although I
I have found out that if you connect host to network using wired
Ethernet and if you have Airport wireless on and not connected to any
wireless network than there is no network connection available to
guest with NAT. Guest will not receive IP address and uses
self-assigned IP hence no networking.
For obvious reasons VirtualBox does no NAT for protocols other than
TCP and UDP. I often need to connect using VPN from my guest therefore
I have to use host networking in guest and as I only can use one IP
from my ISP I have to unconfigure host network interface--very
uncomfortable.

Unfortunately the VPN server is Microsoft and thus I am forced to use PPTP
