Well, of course, the amount of memory that a dom0 needs depends upon
the service running within it. I guess I didn't word my question
explicitly enough. Is there a formula for determine how much
memory a
dom0 might need, given a system with X amount of RAM, and X number of
guests, assuming there are no other services running in the dom0?
You are hoping to calculate the best possible density? I.e. give dom-0
xx MB per pv guest, xx MB per HVM guest?
Indeed, exactly! Not exact numbers, but a guideline that would let me
maximize the memory available to guests without running the risk of
starving the dom0.
Even that is too broad to really pin down, it would really depend on
what you give the guests and how much they exercise the disks.
OK, thanks, I guess I assumed as much, given that if such information
existed, Google would have told me. :-)
