I'm trying to figure if my software running on linux suffers from memory leak. I've tried to measure the available physical memory as found in /proc/meminfo (see below) but could understand which field(s) represents the available memory and what is the relation between MemFree, Cached, Buffers, Active, Inactive.
cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 124128 kB
MemFree: 62872 kB
Buffers: 0 kB
Cached: 15624 kB
SwapCached: 0 kB
Active: 38724 kB
Inactive: 11148 kB
SwapTotal: 0 kB
SwapFree: 0 kB
Dirty: 0 kB
Writeback: 0 kB

Mapped: 14640 kB
Slab: 5564 kB
SReclaimable: 424 kB
SUnreclaim: 5140 kB
PageTables: 504 kB
NFS_Unstable: 0 kB
Bounce: 0 kB
