Subject: Re: Clarification On top command



        Hello

         

        We use top command for checking system performance and many found that 
lot of memory is cached like one below

         

        Cpu(s): 28.2%us,  0.1%sy,  0.0%ni, 71.7%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  
0.0%st

        Mem:  74175192k total, 73199960k used,   975232k free,   910828k buffers

        Swap: 104856244k total,  1565532k used, 103290712k free, 65612288k 
cached

         

        Can some body help us understand what is really cached? Is this 
available for required process on demand? 

        Unable to get clear info about this.

         

        Many thanks in advance.

Yes, this is available for requiered process on demand. 
 You can find detail from http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_admin/buffer-cache.html
