memory-dynamic-max dynamic maximum memory in bytes.

obeyed: memory_static_max
>= memory_dynamic_max
>= memory_dynamic_min >=
memory_static_min.
read/write
memory-dynamic-min dynamic minimum memory in bytes.
Currently unused, but if changed the same
constraints for memory-dynamic-max
must be obeyed.
read/write
memory-static-max statically-set (absolute) maximum memory
in bytes. This is the main value used to
determine the amount of memory assigned
to a VM.
read/write
memory-static-min statically-set (absolute) minimum memory
in bytes. This represents the absolute
minimum memory, and memory-static-
min must be less than memory-static-
max. This value is currently unused
in normal operation, but the previous
constraint must be obeyed.
