ok, well the issue was with me not understanding the rcapstat command clearly. ie. im new to sol 10 so just playing around with it.
basically the rcapstat is showing us the memory caps defined in each zone. so for the example above its 40m and 30m.

however, when we run prstat from the global zone its showing ALL the memory being used by the zone which includes the capping set up for system.
