Thank you for explanation,
I think it would be useful to document this somewhere. (Documnetation? man slabinfo ?)
Also I would like to know is it some (fast) way to get real numbers in userspace ?
crash is too fat for this task.
Do you know perhaps some other userspace utility or may be systemtap/drgn script?

I'm preparing new set of memcg accounting patches, with reparired tools/cgroup/memcg_slapinfo.py
I can get numbers of accounted resources, but I need to understand how may resources was NOT
accounted to memcg but allocated on host. I expected get these numbers from host's slabinfo but
it does not show correct numbers.

Thank you,
	Vasily Averin
