understanding the prstat log

Can some one please explain what does the memory part mean in the prstat logs?
NPROC USERNAME SIZE RSS MEMORY TIME CPU
61 oracle 36G 33G 71% 109:44:26 12%
89 cemsbin 12G 9523M 20% 195:02:41 11%
2 adm 273M 199M 0.4% 47:05:42 2.3%
89 root 2499M 787M 1.6% 14:31:42 2.2%
3 nortel 2776K 2272K 0.0% 0:00:01 1.1%


What does the %Memory denote?
How does the prstat calculate %memory?

Thanks in advance.
