Howdy list, I've been wondering about this for a while: How do I calculate the amount of free memory my system has at any given point in time? My top usually looks like this: Mem: 72M Active, 668M Inact, 165M Wired, 29M Cache, 112M Buf, 70M Free Swap: 2048M Total, 5448K Used, 2043M Free I understand the "70M Free" part, but should I add "668M Inact" to that? Or is it more complicated? Thanks! -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.
