So I am looking at top on our embedded system. I notice the memory amounts are in KiB. Then I thought to myself: "We are not far from this being in MiB units."

I am excited for Terahertz optical cpus and Petabyte storage drives.

    This is what I was looking at:

    KiB Mem : 1869120 total, 1532328 free

    I always wondered why it is in KiB. Like, given that it is human-unreadable already, why not just use bytes?

    @cafecortado probably because no one cares what the first 3 digits are anymore.
