"free" gives me the following outout on my workstation: |

About 84% memory is used. But about 900MB are used for caching and |
| 15 |
buffering, so in fact there are only about 346MB in "real use". |

If your memory is 99% without buffers and cache, then there is |

something wrong (but I don't know what). |

Can you see a process that consumes that much memory when you are |
| 19 |
calling "ps" or "top"? |
