Is there any method to supervise the memory's waste?

I wrote a large code, but it spends memory very quick. Is there any
method to supervise memory's use and watch whether there is some waste?

I forget to say that I always use new and delete to create and delete
some matrix

In windows,system tool can helps.
In unix, some Solaris has a a number of tools.
Firstly, "pmap" gives you a nice breakdown of the process' memory usage.
If you're on x86 you can probably compile Valgrind for solaris: that's
pretty much the golden standard. If you're on Sparc then I suggest the
open source Dmalloc library. Electric fence is an oldie but a goodie,
and it's had leak detection bolted on.

Check out the following code for portable method to tracking memory.

It's much easier to not use 'new' and 'delete' than to find where the
leaks come from. Try using vector, it takes care of memory for you.

Hope this helps,

I've created a build script for my companies...

I work emulator project using 32 Bit emulated processor. The problem is that it attempts to allocate 4GB memory because some people want to use emulated instruction to read data from 4GB memory. It is always not necessary because it can waste a lot of memory. There is a way to create pointer list. Emulator project can only allocate less than 1GB memory that it is always enough. One GB memory is a real memory. Then, it can allocate...

In C, we have read-only memory (const), read/write memory (normal data), and write only memory. Let's look at the third one in more detail. Write only memory is a piece of RAM that can only be written to, since its contents are undefined. The program is allocating a new piece of data, and the previous contents aren't relevant.

I'm using ReadProcessMemory from kernel32.dll to read specific bytes from the process memory of a program. While the solution I have now (which updates the memory content at regular intervals) works, I can help thinking that it's a waste of resources.

If I have malloc()'ed a pointer and want to read from it as if it were an array, I need to know that I won't be reading past the last index. If this is a pointer to a pointer, a common technique seems to be setting a NULL pointer to the end of the list, and here we know that the allocated memory has been exhausted. All good. When this is a pointer to another type, say int, I could have a variable that records how much memory is being...
