Hi all,

Totally off topic question but I guess here are at least 1 person with the right answer.

On my CentOS server I have 2 GB memory, however hobbit shows me that the used memory is slowly being used and never freed. How can I determine which application has the mem leak ? Doing a lot of ps commands only produces a list of processes with less than 1% mem usage. 

Hi

can you run that :

$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:            91         85          6          0         28         23
-/+ buffers/cache:         34         57
Swap:          192         85        107

On this machine, memory used by applications is only 34 Mb
