VM's Don't Over commit RAM ( set Dynamic RAM on HYPER-V)
Hi there
Even if you are using a 64 Bit OS don't over commit RAM when the VM starts - HYPER-V allows you to set DYNAMIC RAM which means the OS will grab more when it needs it - and then of course you can run MORE VM's or have a better throughput on your HOST.
If you are using HYPER-V set DYNAMIC RAM - check the box on Memory configuration for the VM.
Here's my current memory use on a W10 HYPER-V VM -- running a 32 bit version of OFFICE 2010 (EXCEL).
Maybe I should have used 500MB as start up instead of 2000 MB - (2GB).
Cheers.
