How do I find out what my machine's memory is being used for? How can I tell if I need more memory?

SunManagers Frequently Asked Questions
To discover how much virtual memory (i.e. swap) is free, run "swap -s" or "vmstat". If you're using tmpfs for /tmp, "df /tmp" will also work. Discovering how physical memory is being used can be more difficult, however. Memory pages that are not being used by processes are used as a sort of extended cache, storing pages of memory-mapped files for possible later use. The kernel keeps only a small set of pages free for short-term use, and frees up more on demand.

How much memory do I need at least?

Resco Photo Viewer for Palm OS: FAQ
The smallest amount of memory derives from the screen parameters. If you have 320x320 screen and 65000 colors (2 Bytes per pixel) then the bitmap covering the whole screen takes around 200K. So the loaded image will be in most case larger than the screen. Roughly 500K should be enough for most images. If the image needs more memory than available, then it will be downscaled. (To 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8.) Further you have to add the memory for the icon cache: 10K per icon (counting large thumbnails). See similar questions...

How do I find out how much physical memory a machine has?

SunManagers Frequently Asked Questions
Use /usr/sbin/prtconf if the machine is running Solaris. If it's a sun4u running Solaris 8 or previous, /usr/platform/sun4u/sbin/prtdiag is very helpful. It's /usr/sbin/prtdiag in Solaris 9 and later. The banner message on reboot (or type "banner" in the monitor on machines with Openboot proms) will usually report the amount of physical memory. A perl script "memconf" is also available that identifies the sizes and locations of SIMM/DIMM memory modules installed in a Sun system. See similar questions...
