Memory question

[William Jojo]

Perhaps this has been mentioned here before, but couldn't find anything in my
archives.

I noticed that on my RS6K each smbd has resources at 3.5MB and a size of 14MB as
reported by monitor. Is this normal behavior, or am I missing something. I
assume most of the memory is for caching of some sort, but could someone let me
know what's up. I'm using 1.4GB for procs out of my 3GB of main memory and that
doesn't seem normal to me.

See last week it was averaging 9-10MB and now is 13-15MB and I just want a
greater understanding of what's going on in the background.

We have RS6K with 3GB running 2.0.7 and WS's are NT4SP5.
