Hi list. Is it normal for 'top' to show that most of your physical memory is used when there aren't any processes running? (besides the usual init, getty, klogd, sshd, etc).
I assume that this memory is being used for Linux caches - file buffers etc to speed up disk access and so on. Is there a way to tell how much memory the Linux kernel is using, and what for? I'm busy tracking down OOM killer issues on a server and I'm wondering if there is a memory leak somewhere (eg: lvm or another kernel module). Nothing (besides the usuals) is running, but top is showing 900/1024 MB ram used, and 158/1024 MB swap used. David. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
