Wrong RAM reads

[morphadl]

When kernel_task memory ends in a '0' that '0' is not displayed, e.g. 330MB appears as 33MB or 400MB as 4MB. Any other final digits seem to be displayed correctly as do other processes.

kernel_task is still shown in its correct position in the list, right now I have it showing between WindowSerever (455MB) and FirefoxCP... (215MB).

Hi. Thanks for your feedback.
Could you please share the output of top -l 1 -o mem -n 8 -stats pid,command,mem?

I beleive the error is this line in stats/Modules/RAM/readers.swift...
152 var command = str.replacingOccurrences(of: pidString, with: "")

The kernel_tasks process ID is 0, this is being stripped from the memory reading as well as removing the pid at the start of the line. I suspect the same would happen for any process where its RAM usage contains the process ID, e.g. pid 98 with RAM of 398MB or process ID 576 using 576MB.
