Lately I've seem tobe looseing a large amount of memory, I was at 180M =
free, now its down to ~45M. I know Inact =3D inactive, but what would =
cause large amounts of inactive memory to be 'used'? I went down the =
list of top and nothing comes close to adding up to 300m.=20

Also, if its inactive memory, isn't that the same as free?

$top

last pid: 73315;  load averages:  1.09,  1.03,  1.01  up 17+03:48:25  =
20:03:50
31 processes:  2 running, 29 sleeping
CPU states:  0.0% user,  0.0% nice,  100% system,  0.0% interrupt,  0.0% =
idle
Mem: 26M Active, 388M Inact, 55M Wired, 27M Cache, 61M Buf, 4580K Free
Swap: 256M Total, 256M Free
