Thanks for the tests!

I think it would be better to test using idle guests (no memhog).
With memhog eating most of the guest free pages, it's likely no or very few 
free pages are reported during the test.

*After dirtying*. memhog is no longer running.

... and also look again at the numbers how much memory we actually migrate :)
