I have observed on a few of our servers with 1gb and 1.5gb of ram that all the memory is "used" when we run our POS applications. I think your observation is correct and that all the memory is being allocated regardless of being used. I always liked the fact that the kernel was efficient enough to use as much as my faster memory as possible. scott > -Charles
