I have been unable to find a php function to determine available system
memory (physical and swap)?
Right now I am using something like:
=========
# ensure there is enough free memory for the download
$free = shell_exec('free -b'); $i=0; while ( $i != strlen($free) ) {
i = strlen($free);
free = str_replace(' ',' ',$free);
}
$free = str_replace("\n",'',$free);
$freeArray = explode(' ',$free);
$total_free = $freeArray[9] + $freeArray[18];
==========
Does anyone have any ideas that could be used on all OSes? i.e. Without shell_exec()?
Thanks in advance.
