After the introduction of MemAvailable in the kernel v3.14 one can estimate how much RAM memory is being "used" by how much it is left before the system starts swapping. That is the reason why I want to monitor memory usage, to know how close the system is to swapping. Therefore I propose to use MemAvailable to compute the percentage of "used" memory. Theoretically, after this patch a 100% memory usage is a more accurate description of "yeah, we need to swap from now on".

It is a dockapp that is supported by X window managers such as Window Maker, AfterStep, BlackBox, and Enlightenment. The current memory usage is displayed in the top half. The swap usage is in the bottom half. It has an LCD look-alike user interface. The back-light may be turned on/off by clicking the mouse button over the appliacation. If the usage hits a certain threshold, an alarm-mode will alert you by turning on back-light. Run `wmmemload --help` or `man wmmemload` for more information. wmmemload is licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 2, or (at your option) any greater version.
