Forgot to mention the other possibility...

cache_mem is an HTTP data cache and has the same object limits as any
disk cache. None of them may store more than 2^27-1 objects due to
design limits in the indexing. cache_mem also has a much higher rate of
0-byte and small objects than disks usually see.

So its very possible that simply the size of 2^27-1 worth of the small
and most popular objects in your traffic == 1GB.
