<html><head></head><body>It's using less than a quarter of mine. I think you are worrying about the buffers, not what <a href="http://cluster.pl">cluster.pl</a> is using. As was suggested earlier, do a 'free -h' and you will see what's being used by programs and the size of the buffer cache.<br>
<br>
The buffer will always such up the free ram over a period of time. This is completely normal and nothing to worry about. <br>
