"top" to find out which process chews most memory (memory leakage?)

07-22-2008, 10:37 AM

Thanks guys.

"free -m" showed :
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 8113 8023 90 0 98 6545
-/+ buffers/cache: 1380 6733
Swap: 8189 289 7899

So, the free column under buffers is 6733 - is this healthy?

If I tried to run sysstat, I'll get a message :
-bash: /etc/sysconfig/sysstat: Permission denied

./etc/rc.d/init.d/sysstat
./etc/cron.d-preCIS/sysstat
./etc/cron.d/sysstat
./etc/sysconfig/sysstat

Thanks

sysstat doesn't come with redhat

As for the free -m .. yes you are fine.. it shows you have 6.7 gigs of free
RAM out of 8gigs

sysstat comes with RHEL and older versions of RHL.
