"Anonymous" shows the amount of memory that does not belong to any file. Even a mapping associated with a file may contain anonymous pages: when MAP_PRIVATE and a page is modified, the file page is replaced by a private anonymous copy. +"LazyFree" shows the amount of memory which is marked by madvise(MADV_FREE). +The memory isn't freed immediately with madvise(). It's freed in memory +pressure if the memory is clean. Please note that the printed value might +be lower than the real value due to optimizations used in the current +implementation. If this is not desirable please file a bug report. "AnonHugePages" shows the ammount of memory backed by transparent hugepage. "ShmemPmdMapped" shows the ammount of shared (shmem/tmpfs) memory backed by huge pages. |
