You might not need this plugin. Its core job is small enough to live in your theme's functions.php.

Show the snippet

add_filter( 'admin_footer_text', function( $text ) {
    $ip         = $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'] ?? 'N/A';
    $php        = phpversion();
    $os         = PHP_OS;
    $mem_limit  = ini_get( 'memory_limit' );
    $wp_limit   = WP_MEMORY_LIMIT;
    $mem_used   = memory_get_usage( true );
    $mem_bytes  = wp_convert_hr_to_bytes( $mem_limit );
    $percent    = $mem_bytes > 0 ? round( ( $mem_used / $mem_bytes ) * 100, 1 ) : 0;

    $color = '';
    if ( $percent >= 90 ) {
        $color = 'color:red;';
    } elseif ( $percent >= 75 ) {
        $color = 'color:#f4a0a0;';
    }

    $used_mb = round( $mem_used / 1048576, 2 );

    return sprintf(
        'IP: <strong>%s</strong> | PHP: <strong>%s</strong> | OS: <strong>%s</strong> | Memory: <strong>%s MB</strong> / <strong>%s</strong> (<span style="%s"><strong>%s%%</strong></span>) | WP Limit: <strong>%s</strong>',
        esc_html( $ip ), esc_html( $php ), esc_html( $os ),
        $used_mb, esc_html( $mem_limit ),
        esc_attr( $color ), $percent,
        esc_html( $wp_limit )
    );
} );

Reviews

what people actually say

Server IP & Memory Usage Display is a well-regarded, lightweight admin utility that does exactly what it promises, though a specific memory calculation bug in v2.1.0 undermines the accuracy of its core display.

What people like

+Lightweight and bloat-free — does exactly what it advertises with no extras×4
+Useful for site migrations — lets admins confirm which server IP a site is resolving from×2
+Helpful for monitoring RAM impact when activating plugins
+Footer placement keeps the information accessible without being intrusive
+Compatible with WordPress 5.0 and page builders such as Divi

Common complaints

−Memory limit value is calculated incorrectly — raw bytes are displayed instead of being converted to MB, producing wildly inflated numbers (e.g. 2147483648 MB instead of 2048 MB) (since 2.1.0)
−Percentage shown is relative to the raw (incorrect) server memory limit rather than the more meaningful WP memory limit, making the figure misleading (since 2.1.0)
