The man page for pstat refers to the "-s" option as follows:
+ The number of pages free, wasted, or missing. Free
pages are pages that have not been allocated. Miss-
ing pages are usually allocated to argdev. Wasted
pages indicate the amount of space lost because the
swap space is fragmented.
So what exactly are "pages allocated to argdev"? Here's what it looks
like on one of our machines (DECstation-3100, Ultrix 4.0)
/etc/pstat -s
141751k swap configured
115867k reserved virtual address space
34164k used (9760k text, 0k smem)
31364k free, 2056k wasted, 76223k missing
avail: 975*32k 164*1k
So, "76223k missing" sounds like a lot of space.
