我在VMWare上运行了CentOS 5.10(32位)服务器。它分配了4 GB的RAM。
如果我跑步,dmidecode -t 17 | grep Size | grep MB
我会看到:
Size: 4096 MB
但是当我跑步时free
,我看到:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 3107140 1239244 1867896 0 332 400464
-/+ buffers/cache: 838448 2268692
Swap: 2096472 0 2096472
为什么内存free
报告的总数与dmidecode
输出之间存在差异?
我正在运行的内核是:
2.6.18-371.4.1.el5 #1 SMP Thu Jan 30 06:09:24 EST 2014 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
诚然,内核没有运行,PAE
但我认为仅在内存超过 4 GB 时才需要。
我知道我缺少一些简单的东西-有人可以详细说明吗?
附加说明/观察
看起来我的内核肯定为其他东西保留了一堆内存。这是我在中看到的/var/log/dmesg
