I have installed proxmox on a few servers.
Some of them have free versions, some paid versions.
The problem is that proxmox eats a lot of RAM.
Like on one server, it eats at least 40 GB when virtual machines are turned off.
I did speak with the server provider and they told, me that they have problems with another server also.
The server CPU is epic AMD EPYC 7402P. - https://i.imgur.com/24bXfsA.png
The same problem I have on other servers, older Dell servers. - https://i.imgur.com/A4KSfXL.png

The interesting part is that while ago I didn't had the issues and I also have server with a Ryzen processor and an older proxmox version that need much more resources, but there are no such problems with the ram - https://i.imgur.com/aZiFa13.png
Could it be proxmx has problems with hardware support?
Please help me to resolve this problem.
Best Regards
