Basically, its not *really* a totally null program. You've got the dynamic loader ld-linux running first, which then *doesn't* run main() directly, but rather invokes _start, which needs to happen so that __libc_start_main can get called and initialize stuff lie stdio, malloc, and other such t hings, before it finally calls main(). Personally, I'm surprised that ld-linux and glibc initialization can finish without going over 500k - even more so if shared library text pages are included in memory.peak. Somebody else can wade into that mess, I admit having been around since kernel 2.5.47 or so, and I never did understand the memory accounting for shared text pages....
