This is indeed an issue. I usually specify the number of vcpus and the
memory size when I create a VM, and I overlooked what happens with the
default values. I will incorporate this scenario into my testing.

Will send an updated series with the bug fixed as soon as possible. In the
meantime, this fixed the issue for me and I plan to incorporate it into the
series after more testing:
