Agree with ĸen. This host has used many kernels with pae, one i am just
seeing listed is linux-3.10.10-NG-pae. And always got what I think is right:

$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:         16195       5071      11124          0        421       2235
-/+ buffers/cache:       2414      13780
Swap:         4094          0       4094

Swap size is from the time I had only 4GB.
