About Mebibytes
A mebibyte (MiB) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 bytes (IEC 80000-13). Windows/older macOS report sizes in MiB but label them 'MB'. Linux malloc and kernel pages are power-of-2 aligned. Docker images: Alpine base 5 MiB; Ubuntu 72 MiB. Linux kernel bzImage 8-12 MiB. NVIDIA RTX 4090: 24 GiB GDDR6X in 2-GiB binary chunks. 1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes = 1,024 KiB.
About Kibibytes
A kibibyte (KiB) = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 bytes (IEC 80000-13) - the binary kilobyte used by OS memory management. Linux/Windows page size = 4 KiB (4,096 bytes); default NTFS/ext4/APFS cluster size = 4 KiB. CPU L1-D cache: 16-64 KiB. Arduino AVR flash: 2-32 KiB. Windows labels KiB as 'KB'. 1 KiB = 1,024 bytes = 8,192 bits.
