It does not count buffers or the page cache as 'used'.<p> <h2>Current platforms</h2> Linux<p> <h2>Instances</h2> single only<p> <h2>additional resources</h2> none<p> Note that the refresh frequency for this module should not be set too high at the moment; reading /proc/meminfo in Linux 2.0 through current 2.3 is much more expensive than you'd expect. The 'mongo low latency' pathes for 2.3 correct this problem.<p> <h2>Resource defaults</h2> Resource defaults explicitly altered from the global defaults by this module: <ul> <li>bar.0.label: memory (<em>total</em>) <li>bar.1.label: swap (<em>total</a>) <li>litbackground: #e8d088 <li>order: 101 <li>scalerefresh: 2000 <li>scalewidadj: 160 </ul> <h2>Possible enhancements</h2> Could (and should) be extended to use vmstat/iostat utilities on platforms other than Linux (eg, Solaris *BSD).<p> <hr> <a href="http://www.xiph.org/"> <img src="white-xifish.gif" align=left border=0> </a> <p> <font size=-2 color=#505050> MGM will not get your whites whiter or your colors brighter.
