memory reported under linux higher that allocated

Hi,
 
I have 4 gig of RAM and when I allocate 3 gig the <top> utilities show that my application is using 87% of the available RAM, so it's a half a gig more, why? The application is not doing any disk access. I just do a malloc and a free at exit.
