Three possibilies that immediately jump to mind: - if this is an SMP kernel, then too much free memory is being accounted for in cpu-0 vmstat differential and not returned to the ZVC pages count, - there is a too little amount of "managed" memory attributed to ZONE_NORMAL, the ~10MB difference between "present" and "managed" memory, or - ld-linux.so.2 is using too much memory. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
