Thank you Kir,

you're right.
I tried the script on several machines and always got a considerable negative or - at most - small positive diff reported.

However, I do not know another way to measure my problem, and I can't believe that a large positive value (>>1GB, as it was yesterday) should be okay.

I had to reboot the vz host this night (low memory would have killed it today otherwise), so it will take another week to fill up the RAM again.
I would be grateful for any hint on how to measure the gap more precisely or/and ideas about how to isolate the problem.

It's obvious that the openvz-stable kernel can't have such a big leak (>10MB/hour) in normal cases, but as I can't find a process allocating the missing RAM, it seems to be at least kernel-related to me.

I updated my website and added a "dmesg" print 4 hours after reboot of the vz host. Looks normal to me.

Thanks you for your time,

Hubert
