I have been trying to figure out what is using my memory

My box has

320280K

924 kernel
8224 reserved (initrd ramdisk?)
1488 hash tables (dentry, inode, mount, buffer, page, tcp)

from lsmod I caculate

876 for loaded modules

from proc/slabinfo

11992 for all slabs

from proc/meminfo

17140 buffer
123696 cache
32303 free

leaving unaccounted

123627K

This is about 38% of my memory, and only about 46% is pageable
Is it possible to figure out what is using this?

This is with 2.4.6-pre2 with Rik's page_launder_improvements patch,
lvm beta7 and some reieserfs patches applied, after about 12 hours
of uptime.

TIA,

Ed Tomlinson
