[Bug 1517833] [NEW] RES values >10G reported unhelpfully

[Tom Womack]

Public bug reported:

Jobs with more than 10GB RES use have it reported as a number of
terabytes with three decimal places

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND

It would be much more useful to report this as 10.94g (three significant
figures)
