hi

Below is output from free and /proc/meminfo. Attached is a screen shot
from the 'gtop' Memory usage output. They show a computer with uptime 2
days and 2 hours. It looks like quite a large chunk is 'missing'...

The computer has not been running X actively for almost two days. As the
screenshot shows, Apache is using quite a lot. Restarting it did release
most of it, but still there seems to be ~100MB missing.

Anyone who'se got a clue?
