hi all,

we are having an "issue" with some SL61 nodes. after a reboot, free reports 1.4GB of memory in use, of which 24+163=187MB buffers+cache.

i'm unable to identify what is holding the memory, and i'd like to know if others see this too and how i could proceed to find the culprit.

(it is a 32core/64GB machine; kernel commandline has crashkernel=128M@16M (but no difference then eg crashkernel=auto and kdump is off))

many thanks,


stijn
