Hi Jan,
Have you looked at sysctl yet?
I noticed some values with sysctl vm | less, although they don't say much
to me at first. The last couple might be interesting:
..
vm.zone_kmem_pages: 143
vm.zone_kmem_kvaspace: 16732160
vm.zone_kern_pages: 1407
vm.kvm_size: 1069547520
vm.kvm_free: 910163968
Hope it's helpfull.
