Re: how mysql process resident memory is dependent on buffer pool size

hi rick, so what you mean to say is this memory wont be freed immediately but if required it will be alloted to some other process if it comes to that (that is, if memory usage goes to the peak), so its nothing to be worried about...
i am little confused with the below line, can you please elaborate?
" Certain blocks of memory (the 6G that did not get freed) are freed, but not really freed"

finally the memory usage report which shows in `top` is just a bug that reports faulty usage stat?
