Since I updated my 12.0-STABLE system on 6-Aug I have been seeing issues
resuming my Win7 VM on VirtualBox. My prior kernel was built on 24-Jul. If
there is not sufficient memory available to reload the system (4 Meg.), the
resume fails with a message that memory was exhausted. Usually I can try
resuming again and it will work. Sometimes I get the error two or three
times before the system resumes.

Since I have not touched VirtualBox other than to rebuild the kmod after
the kernel build, it looks like something in the OS triggered this. Since
the system frees up some memory each time so that the VM eventually
resumes, it looks like the memory request is made to the OS, but VB is not
waiting or not enough memory is freed to allow the VB to complete the
resume.

Any clue what might have changed over those 13 days? I am running GENERIC
except that I run the 4BSD scheduler.
