memory usage
$ free -m

I have 12G RAM on this box
Code:
barry@paragon-DS-7:~$ free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:          12015        3467        4422         161        4124        8020
Swap:          4093           0        4093
That takes a few milliseconds to run in ssh

Or. you can run this -- repeats the command every 15 seconds and dates and logs the results.

Code:
$ while sleep 15; do   date >>my.log;  free -m >> my.log; done
Code:
$ cat my.log
will print the data to your screen.

or learn how to use the top command and sort your processes.

in ssh/terminal

Code:
$ man top
'q' to exit the manual [quits]

In the host's dashboard there are usage graphs.
