http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15 ------- Additional Comments From esj@xxxxxxxxxx 2005-08-19 15:52 ------- Perhaps a bit of explanation is in order. When I was trying to allocate memory to all of my virtual machines, I discovered that there was an invisible, undisclosed, memory allocation which kept me from allocating all of the listed memory. The motivation behind the percentage allocation comes from two thoughts. The first is that only if you are the most tightly controlled embedded system, do you ever need to know your memory allocation more precisely than the nearest percent. The second is that using a relative measure of memory or allocation it would be possible for xen to change its invisible allocation without any impact on any system using that relative measure. ---eric -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. _______________________________________________ Xen-bugs mailing list Xen-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-bugs |
