Subject: VM question - accounting of SysV SHM
Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2007 16:49:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <75b66ecd0710171349n2a2a5922qfc0d8bb64980a15c@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Sorry to ask this question on the list but I've Googled and found nothing.

Is system V shared memory accounted for as Cached, or as normal
application memory?

I have an application that uses SysV shared memory and O_DIRECT for
all IO, but when it starts up, the cached column in vmstat seems to go
up by the amount of shared memory allocated.
