- Swap – The swap space used by that process.
- USS – The amount of unshared memory unique to that process – think of it as unique memory. It does not include shared memory, so it underreports the amount of memory a process uses, but this column is helpful when you want to ignore shared memory. This column indicates how much RAM would be immediately freed up if this process exited.
- PSS – This is the most valuable column. It adds together the unique memory (USS) and a proportion of shared memory derived by dividing total shared memory by the number of other processes sharing that memory. Thus it will give you an accurate representation of how much actual physical memory is being used per process, with shared memory truly represented as shared. Think of it as physical memory.
- RSS – Resident Set Size, which is the amount of shared memory plus unshared memory used by each process. If any processes share memory, this will overreport the amount of memory actually used, because the same shared memory will be counted more than once, appearing again in each other process that shares the same memory. Thus it is an unreliable number, especially when high-memory processes have a lot of forks.
