It doesn't look like. I tried this program and top doesn't show an
increasing amount of reserved memory:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
{
char *x = malloc(500 << 20);
int i, j;
for (i = 0; i < 500; i += 10) {
for (j = 0; j < 10 << 20; j += 4096) {
*(volatile char*) (x + (i << 20) + j);
}
getchar();
}
}
