Hi,

Have you tried this command:

Router#show memory statistics

[jackko]

maybe give "sh processes memory" a go.

You can first look at sh process memory output and see how much is being utilized.

router>show processes memory

Total: 106206400, Used: 7479116, Free: 98727284

PID TTY Allocated Freed Holding Getbufs Retbufs Process

0 0 81648 1808 6577644 0 0 *Init*

0 0 572 123196 572 0 0 *Sched*

0 0 10750692 3442000 5812 2813524 0 *

Divide used by total multiplied by 100 will give you the memory utilization threshold.

% utilized in this ex:, (7479116/106206400)*100 = 7%
