It was mentioned that VSZ accounts for virtual memory, not used physical
RAM. It's not a guaranteed way of identifying excessive RAM usage.
Please post /proc/$PID/maps so we can confirm the 900 MB overhead is
heap, not just mmaped files or other things.
Also please post the full qemu-kvm command-line so it's clear which
features are in use.
