I believe a page frame is 4096 bytes.

Subject: REAL memory column in SDSF


In the SDSF DA (Display Active) there is a column labeled "REAL". What are the units?

The SDSF manual states that REAL is
"Current real storage usage in frames"
So it seems to be in units of page-frames, but I don't know how big a frame is! 1Kbyte? Varies? Does the column give an accurate measure of memory consumption by a process ("started task")? Thank you.
