Yup. I normally run two VMs, sometimes more. It's quite normal to see the actual memory use hover around 12gb, if I'm doing anything at all heavy in the main system it's going to edge past 16gb. I've only taken it clear up to the 24 I have installed once doing a bunch of video conversion. (I couldn't queue them up so I had several instances running when I walked away from the machine.)
