Hello,
I'm running 8-CURRENT in a VM with 3000 MByte RAM:
$ dmesg | fgrep memory
real memory = 3145728000 (3000 MB)
avail memory = 3062030336 (2920 MB)
VMware memory control driver initialized
but top(1) shows only:
Mem: 429M Active, 245M Inact, 190M Wired, 83M Cache, 112M Buf, 197M Free

Could this have removed a block of memory for its own use outside of the
normal VM subsystem?

My problem is that I think something in the system is allocating
memory and not releasing it.
The same applications used to run on a Freebsd 4.7 BOX with 1GB
RAM, and only in some few cases had to swap out.
Now, I´m moving to another machine with 2GB RAM, and I´m seeing

Now, I´m moving to another machine with 2GB RAM, and I´m seeing
where is the extra memory. I expected to have more free memory now.
Free memory is wasted memory.

Free memory is wasted memory. When something needs it, it will be
reallocated from other areas. This is a FAQ.

It seems that this is the case. I wrote a small program to
allocate a large block of memory (more them that shown as free) and the
system doesn´t swap.
Nor should it. Simply allocating memory doesn't actually
Hi,
How can I track where/who is using the system memory?
I have a 2GB (RAM) system running Freebsd 5.4, basically as a mail
gateway.
After a few hours up, TOP shows me about 300MB of free memory. No
swap yet.
But the sum of RSS column of ps axum, gives me about
In top, if you type in u it will prompt you for an account which you
can monitor the processes and mem. Of course, this will not work for
