Well this is what i concluded after googling too so i already worked around 
it. Each machine has its own tmpfs and respective TMPDIR variable. As a first 
attempt i made it guest memory size plus 1M, but it did not help. increasing 
it to 2*guest + 1M did neither.

Not to mention i can see the virtual machines using their TMPDIR, the latter 
configuration results in about 2/3 free memory each. Could it be a short peek 
in memory usage or some other shared ressource that i have missed?

For the statistics:
The host machine has 320M.
The guest virtual machines amount to 7*16M plus 1*24M.
Sum of virtual machine tmp dirs for 2nd conf is 273M.

BTW: The host machine has no swap and is configured with overcommit mode 2.

Best regards, Marcus
