Description
Virtual machines can adjust memory allocation automatically through a libvirt and QEMU ballooning helper.
This package is useful for administrators and virtualization developers who want guest memory to expand or shrink according to policy. It does not provide a VM manager interface; it supports automation around libvirt-managed guests.
Memory ballooning can affect guest performance, stability, and workload behavior. Test policies with noncritical virtual machines before using them in production.
