Look for a line later in /var/log/syslog (or grep for it though dmesg) that looks like this: Dec 14 15:11:01 jazzman kernel: Freeing unused kernel memory: 80k freed (Note, I think the amount of memory freed is system/kernel build dependant.) -- Edward Guldemond -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
