Disclosed is a memory power consumption reduction system that includes a memory allocation section, which allocates an area of a plurality of physical memories included in a physical information processing device to a process of a virtual machine when the virtual machine is to be controlled with a VMM; a memory compaction section, which performs memory compaction when the physical memory area allocated to the process by the memory allocation section is deallocated upon termination of the process; and a power supply control section, which exercises control so as to shut off the power supply to a physical memory that is unused as a result of memory compaction by the memory compaction section.
