Did you ever figure out the KVM Memory leak (if that's what it was?) I'm having a similar issue, but it's a single VM and within a week, it exhausts over 40gb of ram (mostly swap since the host system only has 8gb to start with), one major difference is my VM is a FreeBSD 8.1 legacy server that I virtualized. Thanks, Tyler.
