It is...   everything else.  By its nature, it doesn't tell you much,
because it is all the other stuff that is not classified.  This may be:

- Graphics driver allocations.
- Window surfaces
- Cursors
- Audio buffers
- Binder transaction buffers
- Large malloc heap allocations (on some versions of the platform this can
not be identified as part of the heap)
- Pages in ram (either clean or dirty) from mmapped files like shared
libraries, dalvik code, .apks, etc.
