# Determine memory usage percentage on Linux servers.
# Original write for RHEL3 for PC1 Project - jlightner 05-Jul-2005
#
# Modified for RHEL5 on mailservers.
# -Some of the escapes previously required for RHEL3's ksh not needed on RHEL5.
# -Changed comparisons to allow for decimal rather than integer values.
