I have a little issue that I can't understand. I have 8x128GB sticks of RAM, which makes 1024GB of RAM. But the command htop displays 996G and not 1024G as expected. You can see the following illustration below : htop image How to interpret this result ? **UPDATE:** This is a strange result since on my MacOS Macbook, I have officially 64GB of RAM and when I type the command htop, I get the following result : htop macos image As you can see, it displays all the amount of official memory, i.e 64GB of RAM unlike to Debian 10 Linux. I don't understand this difference. Could anyone explain me the reason ?
