[issue41587] Potential memory leak while using shared memory

You mean if I have a machine that has 16GB RAM, and the maximum shared memory size is 8GB. I then create two processes to write to this shared memory, and the system won't run out of memory. Is it right?
I can try this experiment later on. But I can not understand this. I can see this memory increment in `htop`. I think the memory stat from `htop` is correct, otherwise, any system monitor software could deliver a fake warning message about the memory.
