Public bug reported:

When on the "processes" tab of the system monitor, the displayed number
for memory usage doesn't include any swap space the process is using.
This seems incorrect; 95% of the time the user isn't going to care where
exactly the data is being stored physically, just how much is being used
in total, so they know if a program is using too much and should be shut
down.
