When I call resource.getrusage on Linux, I don't get any memory stats:
Python 2.2.2 (#1, Jan 30 2003, 21:26:22)
[GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-112)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. from resource import getrusage,RUSAGE_SELF
print getrusage(RUSAGE_SELF)
(0.019531, 0.0078119999999999995, 0, 0, 0, 0, 178, 387, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
On AIX, I get the correct numbers.
What is the goal? I need to find a memory leak in an extension module.
For starters, I was going to find extension method calls that produce
unexpected memory use (and I found some on AIX - but our 12 year old AIX
system is *so* slow). Suggestions are welcome. 2  3823

On FreeBSD, you get correct numbers as well. The Linux kernel, however,
doesn't implement the RUSAGE field, even though it could easily be done
(I once had the same question as you, and did this research then).
What is the goal? I need to find a memory leak in an extension module.
Try compiling a debug version of Python with the option --with-debug and
you can debug refcount problems much better.

The leak turned out to be in the C library wrapped by the extension
module. I debugged the C library with http://dmalloc.com
Very nice package.
