What does it mean HDD Free: 51 MB on / 2404 MB on /var Available Memory 23 MB?

[SharpieBandit]

The hdd free is the jailbreak partition of your iPhone and the available memory is RAM. Your jailbreak partition is wayyyy big though. Did you manually set it? You are using 2gb.... Mine is a meager 688mb.

mine says

HDD Free: 59 MB on/ 10620 MB on /var
Available Memory: 34 MB


is that bad?
I have winterboard with everything I'm using all in one folder, which isn't much. 3 category folders. PowerTool, Cycorder, Erica's MIM, and FontSwap which i'm actually gonna remove now cuz I don't use it.

mine is hdd 61mb/6412mb on /var ava mem 33mb i used quickpwn how do i make the 61 mb smaller

It's not giving you the entire line of text. What it SHOULD read is hdd 61 MB on /root and 6412 MB on /var. These stats are normal! Your root partition by default is 500MB.... after the firmware and jailbreak you will have between 50-65 MB left over. On /var this is your private partition where you will have 8 gigs or 16 gigs of space. 6412mb = 6.412 gigs of space.

Available memory is how much RAM you have free. If it's above 15MB you're doing ok. If its less you will experience crashing issues.

Considering I've got little on the partition (using the default quickpwn settings), memory usage is still in the gutter:
