There are two guests with the described problem:
guest1# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 995 987 8 0 58 349
-/+ buffers/cache: 578 416
Swap: 2047 416 1631
guest2# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 995 985 9 0 57 334
-/+ buffers/cache: 593 402
Swap: 2047 281 1766
All other guests with less workload don't have this problem.

I often read this hint on the mailinglist to reduce memory, but what if the
application (SAP) needs it? Two days ago my guest2 got stuck because mem and
swap was 100% used and it began to kill processes to free memory. I thought
I have to add mem and swap...
And: it doesn't get stuck. It's alive. I only cannot do any networking with
it.
Difficult :-\
