Some kind of memory issue with Solaris in the last couple of updates?
795491Sep 17 2008 — edited Oct 27 2008This is odd. Since a few days ago I noticed my machines are very low on memory. My x2200 with 12g of ram used to sit around 11g available. Now it is sitting around 7.5g and my ultra 20 which normally sits around 1500mb free is now at 170mb free. That is with nobody even logged on to it. Is there something wrong with top or is something busted in the most recent patches?
