Hello forum,
I have setup a ZFS RAID1 proxmox instance with two HDD each 1TB. I have created two Ubuntu VMs (2GB RAM and 4GB RAM). The nvme (256Gb) is not in usage.
The problem is that it takes too much memory for these VMs to run.

What is the correct way in order for proxmox to not use that much memory?
