But it is. That information is specific to the guest OS, I believe 
there's no way of retrieving it without actually connecting to the guest 
(via a specialized agent or SSH or whatever). And we're talking about 
only Unix/Linux; e.g. Windows provides a different method to retrieve 
its memory usage.

So you're right, this is very dependent on the guest OS and I guess 
there's no way of doing it in a way that works for every guest.
