I want to know how much memory I've got free on my system.
The free command gives me something like this:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2064832 2046196 18636 0 146892 1736968
-/+ buffers/cache: 162336 1902496
Swap: 2040244 12180 2028064
It would make sense to me that the kernel is sucking up most of my memory
into a bunch of unused buffers and that I actually have a lot more than 18
megs of free memory. Is this the correct interpretation of these numbers?
What is the best way to get a good idea of how much memory I actually have
free on my system.
