Hello Everyone,
1. In simple terms, what are pages? Users are asking me to explain
in simple terms of what free list and inactive list are?
Free List - Pages that are clean and available for use.
Inactive List - Virtual memory pages that are allocated but
are most likely to be reclaimed when memory is needed.
2. How is this related to system memory which is the actual physical
memory?
We have one system containing 512MB of memory, and I am using syd to
monitor the usage. I believe syd displays the free (physical??) memory
as the sum of the free and inactive list.
Thanks for your help and expertise.
Regards, Candice
