Method Detail

updateMeminfo

protected void updateMeminfo()

Updates instance variables from reading /proc/meminfo no more frequently than every 100ms. While most of the information is available in the sysinfo structure, the most accurate calculation of MemAvailable is only available from reading this pseudo-file. The maintainers of the Linux Kernel have indicated this location will be kept up to date if the calculation changes: see https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/? id=34e431b0ae398fc54ea69ff85ec700722c9da773 Internally, reading /proc/meminfo is faster than sysinfo because it only spends time populating the memory components of the sysinfo structure.

Updates virtual memory instance variables.
