I've been tracking down a memory leak and have a couple of questions
about memory usage.

1. When I do a ps aux, how is the VSZ column calculated and what exactly
does it mean?

2. On my system, if I add up all of the RSS memory listed from ps it
doesn't add up to the used -/+ buffers/cache listed from the free
command. There is about 14MB unaccounted for. What is using the memory
not listed from ps?

Thanks,

Carl
