Memory usage in AIX 5.3

Dear All,

How to find out the memory usage in AIX 5.3.

I want to know which process is occupying how much memory. What is the command to achieve that?

bash-3.00# vmstat 5

System configuration: lcpu=2 mem=6144MB ent=1.00

kthr memory page faults cpu

2 0 1210604 323654 0 0 0 0 0 0 7 380 454 0 0 99 0 0.01 1.0
3 0 1210604 323654 0 0 0 0 0 0 10 372 436 0 0 99 0 0.01 1.0

From the above output how can we calculate free memory.

As per my understanding 323652 means 323 MB is the free memory right .Please correct me if I am wrong.
