You do not have shared memory enabled in your kernel? Any reason? I'd
say that most Unix machines in the world have use for shared memory at
some point in time, it's a pretty safe thing to enable.
Anyway, the "share" thing in GTop is not about "SysV shared memory IPC",
but rather about memory shared between related processes (if they load
the same libraries for example, the kernel could share the read-only
parts of the library between the two processes instead of loading two
copies, thus saving memory).
