Memory Utilization

Hi

I've seen from your e-mails early on this year that you are getting
valuable info on memory utilisation from mallinfo(). What command did
you run to get info from mallinfo?

I'm running Squid 2.3 Stable 3 on Sun420R, with Solaris 7 in http
accelerator mode, compiled with --enable-dlmalloc.
From Top I've got the following info:
Memory: 2048M real, 172M free, 75M swap in use, 10G swap free

Any ideas why top says 172M is free but I'm using swap memory?

I'm using 400M as my cache_mem value. What's the best way to
find out if it's not being used, and forcing memory to be unavailable
to the system?

Thanks, any help appreciated
