| |
I used to use 2.2.19 before going to 2.4.16 and I normally noticed I had about 120mb of memory actually used and about 2-3mb in swap after weeks of uptime.
This is what 2.4.16 looks like: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 514248 487444 26804 0 35172 204360 -/+ buffers/cache: 247912 266336 Swap: 131048 44724 86324
Why is 2.4.16 using this much memory after only 5 days uptime? I never saw this much with 2.2.19 after 3 weeks of uptime.
I'm not running anything different than I normally do. a few xterms, X 3.3.6, netscape 4.77, star office 5.2, and a bunch of daemons.
