<div>Thank you. That about "1k per object for internal structures" is what I was looking for.<br>

<div>That doesn't make sense. Virtual memory is virtual. You're not using it, Varnish has mapped it into it's memory space. Just ignore it.</div>

</div>
<div>Also, note that allocating memory to a backend (6G) does not include the amount of memory needed for the various internal structures - more or less 1k per object.</div>
