When I run top, I get this:
load averages: 0.38, 0.20, 0.12
18:52:23
19 processes: 1 running, 18 sleeping
CPU states: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.8% system, 0.0% interrupt, 99.2%
idle
Memory: 20M Act 1228K Inact 488K Wired 11M Free 4K Swap 32M Swap free
Perhaps I am reading this wrong, or maybe it's a but in top, but it looks
like it's saying there is only 20Mb of real memory available.
