Description of problem: By executing free -b you get 10 times less than really installed memory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): procps-3.2.8-33.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: compare on a machine with more than 10 G of RAM: # free -b | grep Mem | awk '{print $2}' # free -m | grep Mem | awk '{print $2*1024*1024}' Actual results: 7601432576 76013371392 Expected results: I would expect something like: 76014325760 76013371392 It doesn't really matter what the last digit is for me, but it would be nice if the amount of digits is the same.
