High Virtual memory usage, but very low real memory usage, is that normal?
I have a vps with the following spec:
6144MB Guaranteed RAM
4 CPU Cores
250MB Virtual Memory
I have virtualmin / webmin installed on it.
I have noticed that my VPS has a very high virtual memory usage for most of the time (between 75-95% usage) but the real memory usage is very low (15-20%)
Is that normal?
