#### Release Information

Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.

#### Description

Displays the amount of memory-related resources used by system processes. Because the router allocates memory to system processes in chunks, issuing this command performs a cleanup process to gather unused, available memory for reallocation.

#### Options

- detail—Displays detailed system memory listing
- filter—See Filtering show Commands
- slot slotNumber—Displays memory usage for just the controller in the specified slot
- slot all—Displays memory usage for all slot controllers
- application—Displays system memory usage on a per-application basis
- applicationName—Name of the application for which you want to view system memory usage
- virtual-router—Displays memory usage for all virtual routers on a per-router basis
- virtual-router virtualRouterName—Displays memory usage for each data store associated with the specified router
- vrfName—Name of the VRF (note the use of the colon before you specify a VRF name)

Privileged Exec
