- Is this an OpenVZ/Virtuozzo container or a real VM such as XEN or KVM?jordanm– jordanm2012-10-23 22:30:22 +00:00Commented Oct 23, 2012 at 22:30
- 1Can't explain what they are, but I have a VPS which displays the same behaviour. dl.dropbox.com/u/1578899/memory-week.pngEightBitTony– EightBitTony2012-10-23 22:32:59 +00:00Commented Oct 23, 2012 at 22:32
- @jordanm It's a Xen-based virtual machine.redburn– redburn2012-10-24 17:00:52 +00:00Commented Oct 24, 2012 at 17:00
- @EightBitTony Thanks for sharing. Yours looks a little bit more 'natural', but I do clearly see a similar (but perhaps more predictable) pattern of drops in memory cache.redburn– redburn2012-10-24 17:02:24 +00:00Commented Oct 24, 2012 at 17:02

It's odd, for sure.EightBitTony– EightBitTony2012-10-25 11:33:25 +00:00Commented Oct 25, 2012 at 11:33

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
