Hi Raju,
I just want to point out the following:
[root@matrix /root]# cat /proc/meminfo
total: used: free: shared: buffers: cached:
Mem: 15040512 13811712 1228800 4845568 655360 8978432
MemTotal: 14688 kB
[root@matrix /root]# ls -l /proc/kcore | awk '{print $5}'
16781312
[root@matrix /root]# cat /dev/mem | wc -c
16777216
[root@matrix /root]# bc
bc 1.05
1024*1024*16
16777216
Given my machine has 16MB of RAM, where does this difference come from?
Any ideas if this difference could be larger (large enuf to make a
difference in our (mental) calculation) under some particular
conditions???
Regards,
Narain.
