Under Digital Unix 3.0, one could tell the resident size of the
kernel via "ps":
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY S STARTED TIME COMMAND
root 0 0.0 11.5 570M 37M ?? R < 09:04:12 2:38.72 [kernel ]
However, under Digital Unix 3.2d, one sees this:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY S STARTED TIME COMMAND
root 0 5.0 3.6 552M 182 ?? R < 09:21:38 17:23.95 [kernel ]
What does the "182" under RSS actually mean? Digital support asserts that
this does mean that the resident size of the kernel is 182k, which would
be marvelous, if I could actually believe it.
The 3.2d system does have 512 mb of memory, so if the %MEM figure is to be
believed, it takes about 17mb.
Is there any way to get comparable data from both the 3.0 and 3.2d systems?
Thanks in advance.
