Incorrect memory usage reported

On FreeBSD, it shows 10.9 GB / 24 GB when the top utility shows

Mem: 3379M Active, 2029M Inact, 8809M Laundry, 7180M Wired, 1561M Buf, 2474M Free
ARC: 4001M Total, 3809M MFU, 168M MRU, 64K Anon, 12M Header, 13M Other
     3830M Compressed, 4002M Uncompressed, 1.04:1 Ratio
Swap: 4096M Total, 3073M Used, 1023M Free, 75% Inuse

Only 2.4 GB is free, but it shows that 24-10.9=13.1 GB is free.

You might also want to show all numbers, since you have space there.

So it's showing 10.8 GB / 24 GB but it should show like 21 GB / 24 GB? And this is just for the 'Main' memory and not Swap? And could you provide the output of uname -a? Thanks!

[yurivict]

Yes, this is only for the Main memory.

$ uname -a

That would make more sense because only showing Free memory is not that interesting.

[cjbassi]

Showing all numbers would be more interesting, but the graph is only intended to show free memory and the label should probably reflect that imo.
