I have a little issue that I can't understand.
I have 8x128GB sticks of RAM, which makes 1024GB of RAM.
But the command
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 :
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 ?
htop
displays 996G
and not 1024G
as expected.
You can see the following illustration below :
