I've observed that oVirt considers cache/buffer memory as "used". So a host can 
report, for example, 10% memory utilisation when hosting 0 VMs. A reboot of the 
host will of course free all that memory and the host will again report 
something close to 0%.



This caused me a shock a few weeks ago when I thought my cluster was running 
out of memory.



Given that the kernel will give back the buffer memory as required, is it not 
perhaps a bit misleading to count it as "used"?

What’s wrong with it?
