Revision as of 11:55, 27 July 2005
I'd like to see a link here to "Memory free". Does anybody know of a quick and simply was to get a df-style memory listing (something like the free command under Linux or the mem command under DOS)?
I know I can use top, but that shows me a whole lot of stuff I don't wanna see, and not everything I want to see (for instance the total amount of physical memory).
I know I can type
[light@splat ~]$ sysctl -n hw.physmem
to get the amount of physical memory. I can also get a whole bunch of info from vmstat.
If I have the Linux emulation layer installed and the Linux proc system mounted I can type
[light@splat ~]$ cat /usr/compat/linux/proc/meminfo
This gives me almost exactly what I, or in fact what any person first logging into a server and worrying about memory usage, would want to know.
So, is there a simple answer, one that doesn't require anything installed except the basic system? ;)

Have you looked at muse?

only thing i can think of is to make a script that runs those commands and maybe pull them together and output 'em to STOUT. Ideally, a bourne shell script so you could port it to other unixes. I did find that annoying the first time I tried "free" on a BSD CLI.

although looking at muse in action, it's pretty nice.
