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.<br>
<br>
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.<br>
