I just produced this little patch for 2.5. It should provide a bit of the extra
information that you were looking for. It adds some entries to /proc/meminfo
that look like this:
VMalTotal: 92123 kB
VmalUsed: 1264 kB
VMalChunk: 80315 kB
Total available, total used, and largest chunk available.
It is simple enough that a backport shouldn't be any problem at all. Anybody
interested?
