Is there any way to have top display this information?

  Use `htop` instead. It displays the information in a bit more verbose way. You'll get each section of "used" memory colour-coded, so that the last yellow area can be ignored as cache.

    yep +1 for htop.

  free does the job of taking cache into account (mentioned in the original post). If you've read the neugierig post, and want a better per-process monitor: gnome-system-monitor has a top-like monitor as well as graphs, and measures memory properly (including a discount for shared maps); smem works in the console; it doesn't have a term interface like top, but it can be combined with watch.

  atop is what I use these days, very flexible.
