Hi Alex,

The Total physical memory reserved by individual processes in Task Manager and the Used Physical Memory in Resource Monitor are the same. They both show the total memory that are being consumed by all of the processes. There is a slight difference between the data of Task Manager and Resource Monitor because Task Manager also includes the nonpaged and paged pool.
