ChromeOS solves the memory management very well.

Depending on how you use it, you have up to 3 VMs running in the background with Wayland passtrough: ARCVM (Android), Crostini (Linux dev environment) and Borealis (SteamOS).

All these VMs run Linux and Google uses MGLRU in cooperation with Chromes tab discarder to balance memory.

Wow. Never knew about the move to ARCVM. Though the first thing that comes up when I search it is memory and CPU usage issues though :/

Google et al. has put a lot of effort into improving Linux's virtualization capabilities. Goes with being the OS of choice for pretty much all servers I suppose.
