You show a strange graphic without any numbers. all other commands are also
cutted.

Also part of your email is rather unclear: you write to a public list that
your email is confidential. Bad idea.

About memory:

1) use recon in your production. recon_alloc will help to collect big
amount of information from erlang runtime
2) take a look at /proc/3975367/maps, sometimes it helps to find leaks or
better interpret numbers.

What you see is a mismatch between different ways to calculate memory.
Usually it is ok to live with such a difference.
