Hello,

I'm using 3825 router to provide internet for ADSL customers. Last week I configured policy-map to provide different bandwidth usage. Since this time my routers memory usage goes up.

I have several questions.

1. What is *Dead* process ? it takes many memory why ?
2. Is there any unknown process working ?
3. How do I decrease memory usage ?
4. What is column of memory real usage ?

Sincerely,
Tseveen.
