Cockpit showing high RAM usage.

[unknownoddity]

Hi.

As the title says, my cockpit dashboard is saying I am using over half of my RAM (see image below).

However using top, htop, etc. Shows extremely low usage. There is nothing intensive running at all.

Cockpit version 314, Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS.

Would appreciate any advice in figuring this issue out!
Thanks!

Can you please compare the value shown in Cockpit with grep ^Mem /proc/meminfo? The value shown on the overview page is MemTotal - MemAvailable. htop/top may just treat the RSS/swap/cached sizes a little differently?

This is what I concluded too. Showed cached/buffered RAM as well as active RAM. I wish there was a way to disable it showing the stuff not strictly in use, but its fine.
