Kill process when memory usage reaches upto 80%

Sehboo

Hi,

Is it possible that you can monitor your memory usage and kill some
process when memory usage reaches 80% or so?

I have an application which uses lot of memory and then system hangs,
but it takes about 5 hours before it gets to that point.

I want to write a monitor app which kills this process and restarts
when memory is 80% used up.

Thanks

Why not just fix the problem that is causing the memory to be used up
instead?

We don't have code for that process

Bummer. Well, you can use the System.Diagnostics.Process class and
call its Kill method to kill a running process. You'd have to use
GetProcesses or GetProcessByName methods to get the Process and then
call the Kill method.
