Virtual memory is virtual. You're not using it, Varnish has mapped it into it's memory space. Just ignore it. Also, note that allocating memory to a backend (6G) does not include the amount of memory needed for the various internal structures - more or less 1k per object. -- Per Buer Phone: +47 21 98 92 61 / Mobile: +47 958 39 117 / Skype: per.buer *Varnish makes websites fly!* Whitepapers <http://www.varnish-software.com/whitepapers> | Video<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7t2Sp174eI> | Twitter <https://twitter.com/varnishsoftware>
