You may review this by executing the dmesg(8) command. Among the output will be listed: dmesg | grep "memory" real memory = 2146304000 (2046 MB) avail memory = 2087034880 (1990 MB) You could also check the appropriate sysctl(8) variables as follows: sysctl hw.physmem sysctl hw.usermem sysctl hw.realmem To get memory usage statistics you can use ps(1) and top(1): ps -u top -Modulok- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
