Description
The last comment in #5159 is a little similar to what I'm seeing - Host is Ubuntu, VirtualBox 3.1.2. Guest is Windows Sever 2008 R2 64 bit, allocating 1024mb ram however according to "top" VIRT is 8055m and increasing by at least a meg per minute. This is a significant ram leak.

This guest is running .Net application processing data, .net seems to be in many of these posts (or Visual Studio) but clearly that shouldn't be related to the parent partition (linux host) loosing ram.
