Make memory/info more smart #1377

Enhancement Proposal

On some systems memory/info test fails like that:

CategoryMemory testsIO LogResults:
    /proc/meminfo reports:  7.10GiB
    lshw reports:   8GiB

FAIL: Meminfo reports 970665984 less than lshw, a difference of 11.30%. Only a variance of 10% in reported memory is allowed.

Is it a real fail? Hardcoded 10% seems to be not the best option. The memory consumption depends on system configuration, hardware components, etc. It should taken into account IMO.
