understanding memory consumption
2 Attachment(s)
Hi All,
I am from Database Team, and due to recent performance issues, I want to know more about my linux box (RHEL 4.8 Nahant) memory consumption, the confusion lies in the tools, i used to check memory utilization. First, i used Code:
free -m Then, i used linux graphic tool Code:
System Monitor I have also uploaded print screens for the both sessions. Thanks, Amir |
Hi,
I do believe you are incorrectly reading the output of the free command. Quote:
Code:
total used free shared buffers cached Have a look at these links: - Linux ate my RAM! ("simple") - Why doesn't free memory go down (bit more in depth) Hope this helps. |
