My system has 48GB of RAM. I installed FreeBSD 10.0[](amd64) to that, and boot; and I realized that there's some lack of memory.
Linux[](openSUSE 13.1, amd64) reports ~49550000KB of usable RAM on the same machine - ~600MB more than FreeBSD's ~48910000 KB of that.
Why does it consume a lot of memory? Can I use that memory if I doing some kernel tweaks?
# dmesg | grep memory
