[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello list,


I am wondering what the difference between Buffers and Cached is. Does 
anyone know? (Link to FAQ?)

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2075064    2012088      62976          0      96864    1401304
-/+ buffers/cache:     513920    1561144
Swap:        65952          8      65944

             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        492280     486300       5980          0          4     460852
-/+ buffers/cache:      25444     466836
Swap:       514040          0     514040
