Admin,
    I have been delegated the task of gathering very basic statistics on
several AlphaServers and need some input. CPU and disk space are easy with
the use of uptime and df but memory is a tougher cat to skin. I have looked
at vmstat and am having difficulty figuring out how to condense all of that
information into 'how much memory is in use'. Also, how accurate is the
'Free' memory value in top? Any recommendations will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,

Allen
