You can go to xterm and run "top" or "free" to check how much RAM you have and how much you are using.

gkrellm can also be used to monitor a whole bunch of things, like hdd usage and RAM / Swap usage, cpu and so forth ... well worth a look

KSim also does this, but doesn't look as nice (personal taste anyway)

and ksysguard looks sorta close to the windows look (turn on the statusbar)

the simplest way.... use system monitor....
