Hello All, I'm looking into providing a new procps tool that displays information from /proc/zoneinfo. I have opened issue 344 https://gitlab.com/procps-ng/procps/-/issues/344 for comments, mainly because its easier to track them in an issue. free is great for an overall view, but sometimes looking at the zones is required. Is all the memory on that idle CPU on a NUMA host; or is the only memory left the slower high mem? Questions like that are what I'm hoping this new tool will answer. Part of this will hopefully answer why the Available stat in free says everything is fine, but you're having memory issues somewhere. - Craig -- Craig Small https://dropbear.xyz/ csmall at : dropbear.xyz Debian GNU/Linux https://www.debian.org/ csmall at : debian.org GPG fingerprint: 5D2F B320 B825 D939 04D2 0519 3938 F96B DF50 FEA5
