The kernel will use whatever the BIOS/UEFI tells it. I'm not sure what you mean with "was busy". You can query the amount of memory with: sysctl hw.physmem64 It is also printed by the kernel (and visible e.g. in /var/run/dmesg.boot) like (here a thinkpad with 8GB): total memory = 8075 MB avail memory = 7784 MB
