    Try these methods to determine the total memory used by linum

    This is explained as below 

    • Free command: This is the most simple and easy to use command to check memory usage. For example: ‘$ free –m’, the option ‘m' displays all the data in MBs.
    • proc/meminfo: The next way to determine memory usage is to read /proc/meminfo file. For example: ‘$ cat /proc/meminfo’
    • Vmstat: This command basically lays out the memory usage statistics. For example: ‘$ vmstat –s’
    • Top command: This command determines the total memory usage as well as also monitors the RAM usage.
    • Htop: This command also displays memory usage along with other details.
