Memory tune on Hpux 11.31

Hi Team,

 

 

what is "btree_chunk_are " in hpux 11.31  and what causing this to grow ?.i have seen in my system 10% of physcial memory goes to this (kmeminfo - arena)

 

Fixed arena "btree_chunk_are" owns 338054 pages (1.3gb):
Regular (Closest First) free lists account for 338054 pages (1.3gb):
  Free objects represent 435.8mb (33%) of all memory of this type in this arena.
  idx objsz   pages   bytes   %   nobjs    used    free   %
    0   512  338054    1.3g 100 2366378 1589946  776432  33

 

 

 

 

 

how to reduce this utilisation and what is causing it to grow ?

 

 

2--secondly on waht situation can i tell my system is in need of additional physcial memory .. below swapinfo  shows any clue ?
