Memory usage in Solaris - memory not freed?
Hi,

I'm running a multi-process software system on a Solaris 8 machine. When I monitor the memory usage, I see that the free memory is dropping rapidly, but I can't detect a process that uses this memory.

I'm using "top" to get the free memory and the memory usage of processes.

Thanks.
