Um, no-- what you've calculated is the amount of memory that's being used. Free in top is the amount of memory that is completely unused and is "free"; (Free + Inactive) is the amount of memory that could become available to a program that needed it, but even that is an oversimplification. -- -Chuck _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
