Yeah ... maybe I went too fast, in the original email "column headers" were 
out of kilt; my apologies. However, the example I gave of the "sandbox" 
shows very different results which is why I mentioned MemCache. I'm not 
claiming that this is the only reason, but this list is probably not the 
right place to discuss other checks (e.g. cat /proc/swaps, vmstat, htop) 
for memory management.
