Thanks for the responses. Here is the summary:
Use the ipcs command to see the shared memory in use by oracle. Use the
ps -O vsize command to see the virtual size of the oracle processes. The
virtual size is the real process size. It includes the amount of memory
that is paged out. You will see that the amount of memory is very big.
But you can substract the shared memory from it to get the size.
Normally the shared memory is the biggest amount of memory used by Oracle.
