Commit Charge Peak > 8GB: you are thrashing, your programs don't even fit into memory, your lack of memory is seriously degrading your compute performance
Commit Charge Peak ~ 8GB: your programs fit into memory but have obliterated the disk cache. Reads and writes will be slow, because they have to go straight to the disk
Commit Charge Peak ~ 7GB: Memory sufficient, all good.

Commit Charge Peak of 15GB. Yikes.

Got the answers I was looking for thanks to you. Cheers.
