I need to check for free RAM before performing a specific operation. I've Googled and checked in the docs and I suspect its my terminology that's just out of whack.

So what is the best way to find out how much available RAM is available in a Cocoa app?

For a 32-bit app, that'll be 4 GB minus however much RAM your app is using already; for a 64-bit app, it'll be the amount of free space on your hard disk.
