False

Explanation:

This statement is false because a hypervisor does not need 20% of the physical server memory assigned to just it. 20 percent buffer is saved for Instant RAM that can be used by the system. It is true that 20 percent memory buffer is kept, but it is not meant for the exclusive use of the hypervisor, but it is used by the operating system entirely.
