too much memory being used

[scylla]

I'm on the lotus server and right now here is the stats

httpd (2.2.14 (Unix)) up
exim (exim-4.69-23.1_cpanel_maildir) up
sshd up
cpsrvd up
pop up
cpdavd up
imap up

Server Load 6.27 (4 cpus)
Memory Used 96 %
Swap Used 9.86 %
Disk /dev/sda1 (/boot) 47 %
Disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 (/) 44 %
Edit:
saw it recently change from

These are the stats of whole server... not yours

can you not read? That is the stats for the LOTUS server AS I SAID IN THE FIRST POST. And no, lotus is NOT the only server that x10hosting has.

Whole server not means whole x10hosting.

It mean whole lotus server....

and do you facing any problem due to High memory usage....

If not then why are you talking about it

I assume memory is memory as in data storage. I'm sure they'll just add another hard drive if it fills up-I wouldn't worry.

I think swap is the linux word for RAM memory.

CPU load does fluctuate depending on the time of day, and user activity.

Then you need to get your facts straight and quit posting confusing posts like

These are the stats of whole server... not yours (and not mine would mean not LOTUS)

Whole server not means whole x10hosting.

and do you facing any problem due to High memory usage....

Ok i am sorry!

For my mistake and lets stop talking on this topic...

Memory should never ever be confused with HDD, as it is two different things.

Swap is also same on Windows as linux, the memory is saved to the HDD when the RAM is full

SPAH SAPPIN MAH RAM!

In all seriousness, I find it pretty rare at least when I check to see the RAM usage that high on Lotus. Unless someone is abusing the server, running some heavy duty scripts/bugged scripts or x10Hosting is performing work on the server, I wouldn't be too concerned about it. Typically the RAM usage will normalize after a few minutes. Also, the "SWAP" file is what vigge_sWe stated. It's an additional amount of memory which is called upon when the operating system is low on RAM. The Swap file (known as the Paging File in Windows) is much slower obviously and it will take on that extra load until RAM usage decreases. Keep in mind though, on some server set-ups the swap file is disabled so that it doesn't put extra load onto the hard disk drive(s).
