Low on mem?

# # free

              total         used          free        shared      buffers
Mem:      62376        59760      2616       0               10576
Swap:     1060208     0            1060208
Total:      1122584     59760     1062824

Is this correct? Seems like there isn't enugh memory to run anything else in there...

Re: Low on mem?

On a newly booted device with only telnet (and the d-link stuff) running:

# # free

              total         used         free       shared      buffers
Mem:        62376        30584        31792            0        13016
Swap:      1060208            0      1060208
Total:      1122584        30584      1092000


Memoryleak? A lot of stuff running? Makes you wonder why swap is not used....

This is how mine looks newly booted. The only difference between the two sessions are a whole lot of file copying.

Re: Low on mem?

Why should things be on the SWAP if the memory was not needed?
Things gets swapped when some other process needs the ram.

From my box:

# free
              total         used         free       shared      buffers
  Mem:        62376        60728         1648            0        13752
Swap:      1060208         1916      1058292
Total:      1122584        62644      1059940

Re: Low on mem?

hmm.. any latest observations on RAM issue? it does look ridiculous and on mine it's currently showing only 1350k available with multiple mt-daapd processes taking most of the RAM away. Any idea how to address this problem, as I still want to run a ML donkey on it. Will the idle processes be swapped? Thanks.

Re: Low on mem?

I think you may be misinterpreting the output of free...

See: http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/l … e-mem.html
for a good explanation of Linux memory management and follow the
first link on the page "interpreting swap usage on Linux" for swap info
