See below. Total memory use is about 170MB. > if you're using symon to collect your stats, it might be worth > recording and plotting the mbuf stats it can save. That doesn't work anymore with 4.5 -- I got loads of "symon: mbuf() failed (flag != 3)" in the system log, so I disabled it. > what's the box doing? Nothing particularly exciting, routing some traffic and doing DNS for the local network. The actual activity of the box doesn't seem to have any influence on the memory usage though.
