( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
What should I think of the "buffers" and "cached" memory? should I think they are part of free memory?

This is a verbatim copy of what I wrote down when I had this same question:

total used free shared buffers cac +hed Mem: 1034332 983572 50760 0 149028 530 +132 -/+ buffers/cache: 304412 729920 Swap: 131064 9856 121208 Mem: A B C D E + F -/+ buffers/cache: G H G+H = A E+F+G = B ## probably D+E+F+G C+E+F = H ## probably C+D+E+F

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
