I just started testing proxmox and have a question about memory usage and over commit.

Currently i am running 8 gig in the proxmox server with 2 vms running. The 2 VM's are using less than 3gig of memory but the host is showing 7.5 gig used. Does proxmox use that much memory to operate, that is 4 gig used by proxmox alone?
