Hi,

You can use several tools to check the memory of your system. The following tools can be used.
(1) sar -u (gives cpu utilization)
(2) top -s2 -d5 (five screens in 2 sec interval)
(3) Glance /Glanceplus

can be used..there are performance monitoring tools as well like
(1) MeasureWare
(2) PerfWare
etc.

Thanks.
