slibclean

From Wikistix

Under AIX, shared libraries may remain cached in RAM even after their associated directory entries have been unlinked. These shared libraries then consume disk space, but are invisible to tools like du, lsof, etc.

slibclean scans memory looking for shared libraries with a zero reference count, and frees all it finds. If these belong to unlinked files, the disk space is released.

This command is harmless, although requires root to run. It may be run at any time.
