Hi all,
I have access to a remote server via SSH. I would like to know if there is any possible way to find out the speed and type of CPU and available memory via command line. Is it possible? If yes, how?

Even better:
x86info
x86info: command not found
Uhh, did I need to say that you need to install it first? If so, use your favorite software manager (Yast2, etc.) to install it first.
Despite all that, it's not standard. And who says the original poster has the ability to install software on the machine he's SSH-ing to? Or that it's even available -- because it isn't on my 10.1 system, and install nearly all the software available in a SuSE distro (except for most of the CJK stuff, which I have no need for, and it takes up a lot of space). I wouldn't rely on something that's not universal for something so basic. /proc is both universal on Linux machines, and also being adopted on Unix flavors, too. (/proc is an idea ported from the Plan 9 OS)
