“Lowest” displays the memory usage the system went to in the lifetime of the system. Indirectly, it
indicates the maximum usage in the lifetime of the system: Total minus Lowest.
“Largest” displays the current largest available. This relates to the block size and is not related to the
amount of memory on the system.
