Hi,

I am trying to analyze memory usage on my system. As first step I am monitoring /proc/meminfo. Surprisingly I see Mapped value is more than Cached.

So in which case is it possible to have Mapped more than Cached ?

your apps mmap() less than the amount of files content that are cached through normal read() AFAIK -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer and consultant blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com training: mulyaditraining.blogspot.com
