Bug Description
The system has one Windows 10 VM active with 4GB memory, no other application are running. Just compare the conky display with the System Monitor lay-out in the attached screenshot. The system is using 13,7 GiB and 2.50 GiB swap. The system is very slow when the swap is needed for some unexplainable reason.

After I rebooted the Host system, the same memory load is as displayed in the screenshot, Windows uses 2.5 GiB less memory, but that does not display the huge difference. In the original situation Windows had finished its weekly update.
In the original situation, the system has been up for 2 days, which means that is has been suspended a couple of times, since I suspend the system after 30 minutes of inactivity.
