Aivils:

The output of the ps aux command gives the following column headers:

USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND


Per the ps(1) man page:

VSZ       virtual memory size of the process in KiB
          (1024-byte units).  Device mappings are
          currently excluded; this is subject to change.
          (alias *vsize*).


RSS       resident set size, the non-swapped physical
          memory that a task has used (in kiloBytes).
          (alias *rssize*, *rsz*).


(Source: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/ps.1.html)

Therefore; as it was previously stated, the size is given in kiB, not B,
which means that the total memory consumed by X is still approximately 100
GiB (104332316 kiB).


Thanks.


Sincerely,


Ewen
