At a guess I’d say whatever you did ended up looking at what was being used currently not the sum total, which has been reported elsewhere on the forums as 512.

512 is also not a step back as the Sage isn’t meant to be a replacement for the Elipsa, it’s replacing the Forma which also ran with 512MB.
Sorry, I posted on the wrong thread. The post was meant for the "Kobo Sage opinions".
The memory amount is the one reported by the OS on /proc/meminfo as MemTotal: the same value is 496MB on Forma and 320MB on Sage. It should represent the physical ram minus a part reserved for kernel and other things.
Your guess is also mine, which is why I would be happy if someone would point out to me that I am wrong.
