RHEL3 Memory Use?
i am running a p4 2.4ghz box with 1gb ram.
i am running 3 counter-strike servers....
This is my 'top':
Mem: 1019408k av, 995116k used, 24292k free, 0k shrd, 50864k buff
764908k actv, 145308k in_d, 20348k in_c
Swap: 1052248k av, 90288k used, 961960k free 364104k cached
by reading that i should assume the 'free' is the Free ammount of ram? 24292K (~24mb)?
How are 3 counter-strike servers that have no players using this kind of memory?
I can reboot the whole box, and the 'free' will come upto about ~600mb...... But hours later the 'free' will be back at ~10-20mb....
why is this happening? can someone explain the memory use and free ? all i know is when i reboot, and the 'free' goes up, my servers run smoother.
Please help
A sincere thanks in advance!
