Hi,
Yes prtconf is the accurate answer for Solaris.
Tre here other commands that will show you the memory amount :
dmesg |more - will show you the system boot log where it indicates many resources of it.
and also sar, which is a bit complicated.
But what you are looking for is "top".
If you don't have it on your machine try to DL and install it. it's a must.
There's also proctool - an advanced online processes table info.
Both can be fetched from
