NB: I looked from the running proccess through top, it show: [root@gx ~]# top top - 19:18:50 up 16 days, 28 min, 1 user, load average: 0.10, 0.05, 0.01 Tasks: 51 total, 2 running, 49 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 3.3% us, 0.7% sy, 0.0% ni, 96.0% id, 0.0% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 2075644k total, 2009940k used, 65704k free, 373304k buffers Swap: 3381660k total, 208k used, 3381452k free, 951508k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 5794 root 15 0 42356 40m 1096 S 3.3 2.0 38:02.57 bgpd 924 squid 15 0 120m 118m 1344 S 0.7 5.8 0:30.67 squid 2884 root 15 0 1536 464 404 S 0.3 0.0 3:33.09 klogd 1 root 16 0 1684 544 472 S 0.0 0.0 0:00.98 init 2 root 34 19 0 0 0 S 0.0 0.0 0:01.50 ksoftirqd/0 and when i look deeply, the Free Mem is reduced very fast.....and the squid process grew quickly instead.
