I think 'top' is showing the external view of the process and how many
pages total of heap have been allocated (under 'RES'). Possibly your
tuner program is just showing the size of the cache specifically.

Hello community,
I have mysql installed on FreeBSD 7.0 i386. I am using mysqltuner.pl from
ports
to check for tuning parameters. Now my problem, sort of speak, is that
mysqltuner.pl
shows the following:
[OK] Maximum possible memory usage: 1.6G (53% of installed RAM)
So as far as i understand mysql is limited to using max 1.6G of RAM. But
top
shows different things
PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND
68083 mysql 18 44 0 2901M 1927M ucond 3 608:36
1.07% mysqld
Why is mysql using more memory than showed in mysqltuner. Is mysqltuner
inaccurate?
Mysql is used for storing fulltext obtained throuhg OCR from different
documents. Is there a way
to make a chart on how much memory is needed for a given number of pages or
documents?
thanks,
v
