I see the same thing here, not looked into it before though.

It's interesting, if you look at the mappings of the httpd process on
x86_64, for each mmaped object there is an extra region mapped with
PROT_NONE, which you don't see on i686.  I presume this is counted in
the VmSize calculation - it adds up to about 100Mb of address space on
the system I tested.

e.g.

2a9b033000       12K r-xp /usr/lib64/libpanel.so.5.3
2a9b036000     1012K ---p /usr/lib64/libpanel.so.5.3
2a9b133000       16K rw-p /usr/lib64/libpanel.so.5.3

vs

00d57000       12K r-xp /usr/lib/libpanel.so.5.3
00d5a000        4K rw-p /usr/lib/libpanel.so.5.3

is this libc behaviour by design? Jakub?
