Perhaps you could try System Tools / Monitor. This defaults to Kernel usage, but you could add unused physical memory to the values monitored by clicking Edit / Add Item / Memory Manager / Unused Physical Memory. I just tried running System Monitor and here are the results are got. Allocated Memory = 110 megabytes Unused Physical Memory = 48 megabytes Total of Allocated Memory + Unused Physical Memory = 158 megabytes. Amount of physical memory installed in computer = 128 megabytes. I have always gotten inconsistent results like this when using System Monitor. The amount of memory displayed by System Monitor doesn't correlate with the amount of physical memory installed in my computer. Hence I gave up using System Monitor and I still see no reason to trust it.
