[ILUG] xen and freeing up RAM

Hi all,

One thing which is bugging me, when you shutdown a xen VM, shutdown the
domain, and even stop the xen daemons, the memory allocated to the vm is
still not freed up.

Why is this? I really cannot figure it out. Does this happen on other
distros? or just RHEL5?

Beuller? If this is RH5 specific, then its bug report time...
Can someone test this please?

Or have I missed something?

regards
Conor.


p.s.: I cannot decide on a laptop, so may spend the money on either a new
fishtank, new suspension or a titanium full system.
Can someone recommend a laptop with linux compatible wifi, small screen and
decent power management.
Sorry, I cannot find that thread...

Else can someone recommend a good exhaust system (titanium or carbon only)
for ther 99-02 R6?
Or where I can get an Ohlins rear shock at a good price?... money is burning
a hole in my pocket.
