:cirros VM without any further operations.How can this number look so big?

it a count of resources multiplied by time which i swhy ram looks so
big.

so:

<N> vcpu x hours   = VCPU-Hours
<N>GB disk x Hours = GB-Hours
<N>MB RAM x hours  = RAM-Hours

so 1hr or 1G RAM (1024MB) = 1024 RAM-Hours

Also they're scheduled hours not necesserily consumed, this is mostly
important for vCPU so vCPU is related to runtime not how many cpu
cycles were used.
