[mpich-discuss] Getting each process memory usage

Hi

I previously asked about memory usage for each process, and advised to use
getrusage, it gives me the time usage correct, however the memory usage
(physical and virtual) are always zero

I found that linux keep process info in /proc/pid/mem or something like
that, but I have to be admin to read this folder, is there a way using the
process id, to get its size in memory before I cleanup and free the memory
allocated?!


I appreciate your help a lot,

Kind Regards,

Manal
