The *top* command did not showing any increase of process memory usage.
But the *free* command output showing memory usage increasing for every 2 hours.

As *top* command is not showing any increase memory statistics , Can I assume that my process is not taking any memory which is allocated using *malloc* like API? one more question , the memory allocated through malloc/new in a process should definitely released back right? But the memory reserved by kernel for buffering while a particular process is running might not be released back upon that process termination ?

Do please somebody clarify the above questions


Do please some body respond to my thread of questions.
