  • Ticket #5649 – Description

    initial v1  
    11My !OpenSolaris (64) guest goes into suspended state after running for several hours, seemingly due to some memory issues.  The guest has 3584MB ram assigned, and is not using nearly all of that, as you can see below.  Its memory usage seems stable over time.  The host system, Mac OS X 10.6.2 running VBox 3.1 (btw, same problem on 3.0.10) has plenty of available RAM, and its memory usage seems stable as well.  This happens to the guest running in both headless and non-headless mode.
