Display RAM Usage In Absolute Number Instead Of Percentage #939

Closed TakuyaSama closed 4 years ago

TakuyaSama commented 5 years ago

I would like to ask for the option to set the RAM usage display at absolute values, instead of percentage above the total quantity of RAM installed. It's more interesting to me, at least, to allow that choice. I don't know if that would be a pain feature to include or not, please, let me know as an answer.

Thank you very much for your great work, the program is really nice.

Receive a huge hug mate ^^.

@TakuyaSama I think the option you'd like to have in the application already exists. It's possible to add columns for different stuff and one of those is M_RESIDENT, which is the amount of RAM being used. You just have to go to setup through F2 and go down to the columns options. In available columns, you should find M_RESIDENT.

OK, i'll check that out as soon as i can.

Thank you very much mate.

Checked and that found thanks to @eduardocanellas, though the number is not human-readable/friendly at all. Closing the issue.
