二、free 命令输出结果信息说明
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 525M 470M 56K 38M 118M
-/+ buffers/cache: 368M 627M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
1.第一行
total: 内存总数
used: 已经使用内存数
free: 完全空闲内存
shared: 多个进程共享的内存
buffers: 用于块设备数据缓冲,记录文件系统metadata(目录,权限,属性等)
cached: 用于文件内容的缓冲
2.第一列
Mem: 物理内存
-/+ buffers/cache: 基于应用角度考虑(计算已使用内存时减去buffers/cache,计算可使用内存时加上buffers/cache)的内存情况,也可理解为真实的内存使用情况.
Swap: 交换分区
当我们获取系统内存用量的时候我们应该以“-/+ buffers/cached”行的used和free作为参考.因为第一行的buffers和cached被系统作为了缓存(这里包括缓冲了metadata数据和曾经打开过的内容,是为了加快我们系统处理的速度),而这部分缓存可以根据我们的应用内存使用情况随时释放掉(也可以手动释放).
这里的话我系统可用内存实际为:可用627M,已使用368M,而不是525M和470M.
buffers/cahed手动释放测试
3.释放前
[root@ ~]# free -h
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 531M 465M 56K 42M 119M
-/+ buffers/cache: 369M 626M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
[root@ ~]#
4.使用命令
[root@ ~]# echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
[root@ ~]# free -h
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 391M 604M 56K 420K 26M
-/+ buffers/cache: 364M 631M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
[root@ ~]#
手动释放后我们看到 第一行Mem的used和free有了很大的提升,我们上述的观点得到了验证
5.使用find 命令让buffers增加
[root@ backup]# free -h;find .>/dev/null;free -h
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 397M 598M 56K 2.6M 32M
-/+ buffers/cache: 362M 633M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 415M 581M 56K 17M 32M
-/+ buffers/cache: 364M 631M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
[root@ backup]#
6.使用cat 命令让cached增加
[root@zwj python]# free -h;find /mydata/backup/python/ -type f|xargs cat>/dev/null 2>&1;free -h
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 434M 561M 56K 18M 50M
-/+ buffers/cache: 365M 630M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 996M 767M 228M 56K 20M 367M
-/+ buffers/cache: 379M 617M
Swap: 1.5G 234M 1.2G
