Re: {bb} graphing "active" memory output from bb-memory.sh on linux with larrd.

[Charles Jones <jonescr@cisco.com>]

I second that request.  By default the larrd memory graphs for linux 
hosts are all but useless since it graphs the "Physical" value which is 
always near 100% due to the output of the linux free command that 
reflects the memory buffers/caching.
