I've seen this in the last few weeks but I haven't figured out the pattern. A test system with 12G RAM was transiently reporting 8.5G RAM (using the free command). That is the same fractional difference as you're reporting above - 70% less total memory. That could be a kernel bug. The zram-generator sets the zram device size as a fraction of total memory, it doesn't have a way to affect total memory. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
