As I saw the thread today, I started looking at it myself, on RH's
2.4.18-18.8.0. By now I have:
1 0 0 432892 23828 44648 407208 0 0 0 24 780 879 95 5 0
======
However, top says:
PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND
1450 dmitri 15 0 546M 178M 16212 S 1.1 23.6 21:50 pan
I close pan, and what a change!
3 0 0 432664 20720 44748 410260 88 0 392 20 710 925 95 4 1
1 0 0 46316 197172 44760 409684 40 0 40 160 782 1177 88 12 0
So you probably still have some process which is eating your memory. And
once you find it, restart it:
PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND
3994 dmitri 15 0 15044 14M 6152 S 0.9 1.9 0:00 pan
