wrong memory allocated to linux 8 guests

Description

Hi I have noticed that linux 8+ guests (Oracle Linux, CentOS) have lower memory than I have allocated for them. If I allocate 4GB, guest has 3.5GB. If I allocate 2.5GB, guest has 2.2GB.

I have used the "free" and "top" commands on linux to show how much memory is available. My host is Windows 10.

I have no such issues with other guest OS (Windows, Fedora, Ubuntu, Centos 7+)

There is too little information provided to say anything, do you use 32bit or 64bit guests and please attach a VBox.log of an affected VM.
