Hi,

No, you should be able to access /proc/meminfo even from userland just
fine. It would be the best way to do it. Yesterday I was browsing the
source for Android's "Running Services" app and this is what it does
(gets meminfo and adds "free" + "cached" together to get free mem,
total mem it does something else, but total is in meminfo though)
