Originally I was goin to send this only to Sarang, then I finally
saw what Sarang did - see the discovery process below:

Previously you said:
3:31pm up 5 days, 2:09, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
54 processes: 53 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU0 states: 0.0% user, 0.1% system, 0.0% nice, 99.4% idle
CPU1 states: 0.0% user, 0.0% system, 0.0% nice, 100.0% idle
Mem: 899952K av, 556948K used, 343004K free, 0K shrd, 170032K buff
Swap: 1791208K av, 118408K used, 1672800K free 265936K cached
Now, I'm confused. Where do you see 15mb or so of memory used?
Here, let me interpolate some commas:
3:31pm up 5 days, 2:09, 2 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
54 processes: 53 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU0 states: 0.0% user, 0.1% system, 0.0% nice, 99.4% idle
CPU1 states: 0.0% user, 0.0% system, 0.0% nice, 100.0% idle
Mem: 899,952K av, 556,948K used, 343,004K free, 0K shrd, 170,032K buff
Swap: 1,791,208K av, 118,408K used, 1,672,800K free 265,936K cached
So I see 1/2 gig used.
Also, beware - top shows 2 numbers - total RAM in use currently,
AND total actual size of the program. Unfortunately top does
NOT appear to allow you to sort on that 2nd number...
Hmm. So, I added up all the numbers under top, and got 31,088 kbytes.
Now you've got me wondering. What does ps -axl say?
