in this thread he said Kobo Aura 512MB but I guess he meant Kobo Aura HD : https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...26#post2604026

I haven't seen anything on Kobo's pages but several other websites have said the Aura HD has 1GB of RAM.

Judging from the naming conventions of the u-boot files, it seems to be 512. But for an Aura HD owner it should be easy to find out. By the way, the Kobo Start Menu provides sort of a terminal for that kind of tasks.

Using tshering's terminal, the "free" command shows Total Memory as 512mb (the "top" command functions different than I remembered, at least it didn't work for me.)

Luck;
Ken

I guess you remembered correctly. However, this "sort of terminal" cannot handle the output of monitoring processes, since it waits until the process is finished before it shows the output. But since top does not stop by itself, ...
EDIT: Something that works (apart from free and cat /proc/meminfo) is
Code:
top -n 1

Since the Arua HD uses a memory card, maybe a 16GB card can be put in place instead.

He's asking about RAM, not flash memory used for storage (which IIRC is 4GB).

I just tried it. It doesn't make a difference with this wannabe terminal, at least none that is perceptible to the user. Maybe the performance is better, since top does not listen for user input with this switch, but this gain is hardly noticeable with one iteration.

I'd been experimenting via telnet and seen that switch ran in batch mode so thought it might help.
