$cat /proc/meminfo
does give you details about current memory usage. Are you looking for something more than this?
Namaste,

Hi All,
This may be an over-simplification.
If the total number of active pages (for all zones) is X at any instant of time, does it mean that memory activity at that instant <= (X * pg_size) kBytes?
I know that the zone active lists only keep track of user-level active pages. So does (X * pg_size) kBytes indicate instantaneous user-level memory usage? Is there any other way of getting the instantaneous system total memory usage?
Thanks
