From an Intel MacBook for comparison if anyone is curious:
Safari Version 4.0.5 (6531.22.7)
Process Kind: Intel (64 bit)
%CPU: 8.9
Real Mem: 273.2 MB
Virtual Mem: 321.3 MB
Private Mem: 184.4 MB
Shared Mem: 33.0 MB
I'm guessing that a MB is 10**9 bytes, not 1024**3. Not sure when
Apple decided to go this route, but that's how it works for file sizes
in Snow Leopard. They'd be consistent and use the same units for other
size, wouldn't they?
Uh 10^9 or 1024^3 respectively would be a lot closer for MB.
On the Linux systems I'm using they use KiB, MiB & GiB. Personally I
think the whole thing is just getting more confusing rather than less.
I don't really care if K is 1000 or 1024, it's just 2.4% difference FCOL.
And FWIW I'm running 1.6 Billion Bytes (now go ahead and guess what that
means :) ) of VM for Safari. That's with 7 windows open and I don't
know how many tabs. AFAIK that's normal and it doesn't concern me.
