Hello,

Subject: top, MAXMEM, sysctl, and missing memory?

However, if I fire up top(1), she reports
Mem: 5390K Active, 5322K Inact, 7627K Wired, 13K Cache, 48M Buf, 76M Free
Simply addition of the numbers from top(1) comes to about 141 MB.
Looking at top(1) sourcesi shows that she uses the following
syctl variables:
vm.stats.vm.v_active_count: 5169
vm.stats.vm.v_inactive_count: 5116
vm.stats.vm.v_wire_count: 7550
vm.stats.vm.v_cache_count: 24
vm.stats.vm.v_free_count: 77901
and the total page_count is
vm.stats.vm.v_page_count: 95760
which nearly agrees with hw.availpages.
It appears that the recent changes to top(1) to use sysctl
may have gotten the page size, but I haven't determined
where to fix her.
So, is the system using all 384 MB of memory or is there
another kernel config option to set besides MAXMEM.
I also have same problem. The top command does not translate
the value of page size into KB value maybe.
Please see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=25545
But, I am not sure that it is a complete solution.
