Here states different:

DTUs provide a way to describe the relative capacity of a performance level based on a blended measure of CPU, memory, and read and write rates offered by each performance level.

I noticed that too. There are several places in the documentation that reference memory being a part of the DTUs, but that DTU calculator doesn't seem to consider memory at all.

This isn't about DTUs, but rather the counters you measure on your local system. Memory is not a part of that.
