This morning when I logged into my computer, I noticed that my system monitor was saying that I was using up ~6GB of memory, so I decided to fire up top and see what was using it. And I noticed something - the %mem fields look really off. For example, Chrome is using ~1G, and it says that's 10.7% of memory. But, Virtualbox is using ~1.3G, and it says that it's only using 0.5% of memory? I thought, well, maybe it's just showing the percentage used by that individual process but the amount of all of the processes with the same name, but nope, there's only one VirtualBox process running.
Is this a bug, or is something else going on?
To determine the amount of memory used in a more realistic way, use "pmap -X <pid>" and read the PSS column. -- "Judging by their response, the meanest thing you can do to people on the Internet is to give them really good software for free". - Anil Dash -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
