…o show memory usage When showing memory usage, what you want to know is the really **used** memory, which doesn't include cached memory; cache memory can be claimed by the kernel under memory pressure. The Linux kernel will try to use as much cache as possible by default, but that doesn't mean that the RAM is not available. This PR fixes that and shows only the real used memory.

When showing memory usage, what you want to know is the really used memory, which doesn't include cached memory; cache memory can be claimed by the kernel under memory pressure.
The Linux kernel will try to use as much cache as possible by default, but that doesn't mean that the RAM is not available. This PR fixes that and shows only the real used memory.
