I always do this on the guests as it seems fairer to let the guests use swap when they need the extra memory rather than over-committing too much memory on the host. Although it would probably be more efficient overall to let the host manage all swapping. It consumes more I/O bandwidth, but most guest's memory stay "warm" no matter what other guests are doing.

Maybe virtio is leaking memory.
