As stated in the Limitations section on the documentation page for the memory function, this function is only supported on Microsoft Windows systems.

Not sure if the functionality is identical, but the following call to java will give you a number that matches up with the Java heap memory that is set in preferences:
runtime = javaMethod('getRuntime', 'java.lang.Runtime');
maxMemory = javaMethod('maxMemory', runtime);

If I recall, on Linux you would want to first find your process ID, and then example the /proc file system entry for that process, as that can tell you how much memory the process is using.
