VMware Server uses a memory trimming technique to return unused virtual machine memory to the host machine for other uses. Although trimming usually has little impact on performance and might be needed in low memory situations, the I/O caused by memory trimming can sometimes interfere with disk-oriented workload performance in a guest.
To disable memory page trimming, check the Disable memory page trimming check box, and click OK.
