Hi All, I was looking at my memory usage today and I noticed that I'm using almost all of my memory! I have 1.5 Gb of RAM in my server and that should be plenty. I then rebooted to see if I had a running process that was eating it all up. When the system came up fresh it was only using 120Mb of RAM. I'm now seeing the RAM used going up and up everyday. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Here is my list of running processes [root@kevin admin]# ps -ef UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 1 0 0 Jan09 ? 00:00:37 init root 2 1 0 Jan09 ? 00:00:00 [keventd] root 3 1 0 Jan09 ? 00:00:00 [kapmd] root 4 1 0 Jan09 ?
