    With SSH just need to do free -m

    In WHM you can go to server information and it'll tell you how much

    There should be more information than that. That is just the processor info you should have memory info listed somewhere as well.

    And I'm not sure if it's normal for a 3800+ to be listed at 1000mhz I believe they're actually 2ghz

    If my conversion is right that server has 4GB of ram in it or so.

    Now the 1000mhz well thats bad because the CPU is actually suppose to be clocked at 2000mhz.

    It could just be a faulty reading or it could be set wrong in bios I do not know. Or there is the possibility they have cool n quiet set on so its not under high load so it's clocked down. You'd need to ask your provider about that

    Might be a case of cool-n-quite enabled. BTW, dunno if he's using a latest SMP kernel.

    Try through SSH :
    uname -r
    cat /etc/*release*

    I agree with agnivo. It has to be c-n-q or a non smp kernel...

    I always think 1 gig should be minimum
