The following example shows how much memory that JVM has allocated for your application:

 Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();  
 System.out.println("allocated memory: " + runtime.totalMemory() / 1024);

The following example shows how to discover how much memory is free within the application:

Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
System.out.println("free memory: " + runtime.freeMemory() / 1024);

The freeMemory() method will return the amount of free memory from the allocated memory. Since this value does not include any memory that hasn't yet been allocated by the JVM, you will need to get a complete picture of the free memory that your application would be able to use. To do this, you need to include the amount of memory that hasn't yet bee allocated by the JVM, but could be allocated if necessary.

    Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();  
      
    long maxMemory = runtime.maxMemory();  
    long allocatedMemory = runtime.totalMemory();  
    long freeMemory = runtime.freeMemory();  
     
    System.out.println("free memory: " + freeMemory / 1024);  
    System.out.println("allocated memory: " + allocatedMemory / 1024);  
    System.out.println("max memory: " + maxMemory /1024);  
    System.out.println("total free memory: " + (freeMemory + (maxMemory - allocatedMemory)) / 1024);
