Take the 2-minute tour ×  I am looking after a server that has
6GB of RAM. There is a JAVA binary running that is using 1.8GB
RAM, but nothing else is using anything near that, but I am
seeing a constant 85%+ usage of physical memory.  The other
processes don't add up to the difference so where else can I see
what is using the memory?  I've never seen this before...
UPDATE 1: During my research I have discovered that SQL server
can use more memory than it shows it is using in Task Manager.
My box is running MySQL so I am wondering if a similar thing
happens here?  share|improve this question Have you tried the
sysinternals process explorer? –  kafka Jan 11 '13 at 16:29 Can
you be more specific? Is the 85% consumed memory active memory
or is the majority of it buffers? –  MDMarra Jan 11 '13 at 16:33
and to add to @MDMarra - what tool(s) are you using to come to
this conclusion? –  TheCleaner Jan 11 '13 at 17:10 I'm using
Process Explorer and that shows Physical Usage as 85%. Where do
I see it as active or buf
