Subject: /usr/bin/top: RES and MEM% are 16 times VIRT
Date: Thu, 02 Mar 2017 17:32:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+Wt6prqt-5=JWJiqRaHfCHFO6KvPvcOfk1+jbmOC4NbZZ0prw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
The RES column displayed by /usr/bin/top is 16 times as large as VIRT
(as is MEM%, since it is presumably calculated from RES). From my
observations, VIRT seems to agree with /proc/self/stat field 22
(0-origin), and matches what I expect.
Not a big deal, but it surprised the heck out of me....
If I were to guess, I'd say this is probably due to incorrect page
size/count calculations.
Cheers,
Marty
