I get:

  2:40pm  up  2:12,  2 users,  load average: 1,06, 1,12, 1,10
66 processes: 63 sleeping, 3 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states:  0,8% user,  1,5% system, 97,6% nice,  0,0% idle
Mem:   515232K av,  399420K used,  115812K free,       0K shrd,   51852K

Swap:  530104K av,       0K used,  530104K free                  217508K

to this:

 2:40pm  up  2:12,  2 users,  load average: 1,05, 1,12, 1,10
Mem:   515232K av,  399552K used,  115680K free,       0K shrd,   51852K

This is on my workstation. So it looks like there _is_ a diffrence. Maybe
