This says it's using 33M out of an available 48M of memory. The code (in
HeapStatus.java) just uses the Runtime.totalMemory() and
Runtime.freeMemory() methods to get these numbers.
These methods report the total/free space on the JVM internal heap - which
is what gets used up when you new() an object (or load classes). The JVM
itself and memory allocated by the native parts (file handles, sockets
and other OS resources) are not reported by those methods, either.
All Java programs share a similar discrepancy.
