ESXi 6 Host Memory Usage

Hi guys,

I've just upgraded my ESXi 6 host (single host, no clustering) from 64GB to 128GB.  Prior to the upgrade I noticed my usage was around 59GB.

After upgrading, with exactly the same VM's I'm seeing usage at 119GB... I'm a little perplexed, as doing the maths shows all VM's should equate to 59GB still.

Any advice would be appreciated.

I've screenshotted the host after a restart.  No VM's running and memory usage is 69GB!

Any ideas guys? - I've essentially gained very little from upgrading the RAM Smiley Sad
