Guest Memory

I am sure this has been answered before but I can not find it. I am trying to figure out why my Guest Mem% on some of my guests show 1 to 10%, but the host mem - MB is high. For example Guest 1 may have 4 gigs of ram assigned to it and it will show that it is taking 3896 megs of Host Mem, but the guest Mem % is very low like 2%. I do not have any reservations set

I only have 32 gigs of ram on the host and I am reaching the host limit with only 10 to 15 guests on the server.

Are you using a processor which has AMD RVI or Intel NPT.
