Wrong Ram Info

[gopar]

Not sure what info you need from me to properly debug this :)
Also, mac has 16 GB available

That’s quite the error indeed. It should be relatively easy to debug though, I’ll investigate it soon. It seems there is also an issue with the length of the ramp.

I cannot reproduce this issue on my macOS VM. This might be due to my VM being stiill under macOS Catalina (by the way, I just found a bug related to version detection, I’ll work on that in the meantime). Could you give me the output of the following two shell commands on your machine? $ sysctl hw.physmem $ sysctl hw.usermem As well as the output of the following Elisp code? (message "%s" system-type)

It seems like physmem and usermem got broken in Big Sur. A new implementation of retrieving RAM info needs to be implemented for macOS. For the record, neofetch does it like so: ,---- | mem_total="$(($(sysctl -n hw.memsize) / 1024 / 1024))" | mem_wired="$(vm_stat | awk '/ wired/ { print $4 }')" | mem_active="$(vm_stat | awk '/ active/ { printf $3 }')" | mem_compressed="$(vm_stat | awk '/ occupied/ { printf $5 }')" | mem_compressed="${mem_compressed:-0}" | mem_used="$(((${mem_wired//.} + ${mem_active//.} + ${mem_compressed//.}) * 4 / 1024))" `---- This could be a starting point for a patch.

@gopar I pushed a fix on the branch https://github.com/Phundrak/eshell-info-banner.el/tree/fix/macos-ram-detection, could you test it and see if it works as intended?

[gopar]

it works!

[Phundrak]

Perfect, it’s now merged in main!
