Memory demand is higher then memory assigned?

Hello everyone,

I think I broke something (see link at end)...

My CentOS VM in particular is causing me issues all of a sudden. It is configured with dynamic memory, 2GB startup, 2GB maximum, 1GB minimum. It starts up, once the dynamic memory stuff kicks it, the demand goes over 2GB and the assigned hits 2GB, the status becomes Warning. The machine isn't actually using that extra (?) memory but is using all 2GB of it's allocation. I reboot, type reboot and hit enter, and as soon as I hit enter to send the command the memory demand jumps down to its real amount. After the reboot it jumps right back up.

I tried changing the startup and maximum RAM to 4GB and testing again. The machine does the same thing, but its at 2.5GB (roughly) and not over 4GB. Dynamic memory lowers to 3GB (roughly) after a little bit.

I'm not really sure if this is a Hyper-V issue or a CentOS issue or a combination of both.

I notice something similar with a Exchange 2013 Mailbox and Client access server but it's not as bad. The Memory demand is higher the the assigned memory and the maximum memory. But task manger states that 3.5GB of RAM is free, 3.0GB of which are in the cache. This issue is something I just noticed earlier this week. I had a previous exchange installation (that was with exchange 2013 all roles on one server) and it did not do this.

Can anyone make anything of any of this? I'm stumped.

Here are pictures of all the figures I've given. Notice in the CentOS VM the memory in use is certainly not ~2.5GB.

Let me know if you would like more information.
