    1313        In a server environment running several similar VMs on the same
    1414        host, lots of memory pages are identical. For example, if the
    15         VMs are using identical operating systems. Oracle VM VirtualBox's Page
     15        VMs are using identical operating systems. <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>'s Page
    1616        Fusion technology can efficiently identify these identical
    1717        memory pages and share them between multiple VMs.

    2222          it is not supported on macOS hosts. Page Fusion currently
