RAM: UsageMonitor vs Measure

[derLeon]

so... whats now the correct value?
each line should show me the used memory.
i know there are different kinds of memory... but none of them is the same...


what i want to achieve: show the usage per process as percent

has the usageMonitor-plugin a total-ram to get accurate percentages?
googled and searched. didn't find anything

Code: Select all

;rainmeter vanilla Measures
[MeasureUsedRamP]
Measure=PhysicalMemory
[MeasureUsedRamS]
Measure=SwapMemory
[MeasureUsedRamM]
Measure=Memory

;usageMonitor
;RAM
[MeasureRamUsedUM]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=UsageMonitor
Alias=RAM
Index=0
;Calc
[MeasureRamUsedUMC]
Measure=Calc
Formula=MeasureRamUsedUM
;RAMShared
[MeasureRamUsedUMS]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=UsageMonitor
Alias=RAMShared
Index=0
;Calc
[MeasureRamUsedUMSC]
Measure=Calc
Formula=MeasureRamUsedUMS

;sysout
[meterDebug]
Meter=String
MeasureName=MeasureUsedRamP
MeasureName2=MeasureUsedRamS
MeasureName3=MeasureUsedRamM
MeasureName4=MeasureRamUsedUMC
MeasureName5=MeasureRamUsedUMSC

try adding

Code: Select all

AutoScale=1

to your meter and see what you get after that. It kind of looked like you are getting the correct results.

with scaled numbers it makes more sense... a bit.
seems to be the not-paged pool is missing in usage monitor
difference between swap and normal memory seems to be the cache...


but it makes stilll not much sense to me.
if i open some youtube-videos at the same time the usage monitor ram shared is surprisingly more than the pysical memory from normal measure... WTF? do you have an idea what happens here?


either way. i will use the usage monitor RAM-shared for my displays since it is seems more logic to show full RAM...
still do not understand why different numbers
