Hello. I just created a new server. I decided to overdo it with the memory and installed 64gigs or RAM. I currently have 2 VMs (Ubuntu Server/Emby & Home Assistat) and 1 container (Pi-Hole).
With all my VM's and containers closed, the server is using 32GB of RAM!
With my 3 containers open, I am up to 56.9 GiB or 90.57%.
But as you can see, the individual VMs or containers themselves doesn't use a lot of RAM:
PIHole is only using 59 MiB.
Home Assistant is only using 518 MiB.
And Emby only uses 1.15 GiB.
Why does the system itself use too much RAM? is this a normal thing? Does Proxmox try to use available RAM as some sort of a cache for fast launching?
I did notice that it's only using a small portion of the swap, only 86MiB or 1.06%
Is this the normal behavior of Proxmox? Is something wrong with my install? Do I need more ram, say 128gigs?
