High Percentage Interrupt Time equated to VMWARE Memory Issue

Just something that came up.

Error:
Using Microsoft System Center Operations Manager, an alert was generated that % Interrupt Time had exceeded a threshold of 10.
Environment: Windows 2003 Server 512 MB RAM, 1 CPU, 10 GB free HD Space running Tomcat App Server.
Impact: Although server and service still running, web app would not serve pages.
Notes/ Troubleshooting: Memory was not exceeding threshold on the server; Paging was not above normal.
Resolution: Allocate more memory to VM.
