But then, what's the use of setting a 'mem-max' value? If you grow the
domU memory manually, mem-max is... what? a sort of "preassure valve"? If
you try to allocate more memory to the domU than "mem-max", it just
caps you and give you an error?
If this is the use, can anybody give me examples of WHEN and WHERE to
use it, as I can't figure them out?
Regarding the "balloon driver": was it dropped? Some posts seems to
state that, though I couldn't find further info about this.
And the values in /proc/xen/balloon? Can they be used with to create an
script to allocate memory "sort of" automagically?
