Getting Memory of a Process The real memory that is.

2 New Member
I'm trying to build an app that allows me to track the memory usage of a process over time and save the data to a file.

The problem is that when using any of the memory size members of the Process class I get only one set of numbers. There is no change in the numbers as I notice on the Task Manager.

Am I using the wrong functions to get this to work? I had understood that I needed to use the WorkingSet64 but even the others don't seem to work either.

Any help would be appreciated.

In the context of LATEX, some Pythonista asked what the big successes of Lisp were. I think there were at least three *big* successes. a. orbitz.com web site uses Lisp for algorithms, etc. b.

I want to display memory content using C++ on LINUX. For example, the user may ask to display 256 bytes from 0x1000ff00. The problem is , if any location is invalid, the program will coredump because of attempt to access invalid memory.I understand that in Windows OS there is a function that tells if a memory location is valid or invalid. Is there a similar function in Linux? How does gdb display memory content? I will appreciate a...

I finally narrowed down my code to this situation, quite a few (not all) of my CMyClass objects got hold up after each run of this function via the simple webpage that shows NumberEd editbox. My memory profile shows that those instances survive 3 rounds of GC collections - it's not what I expected. In my real code, CMyClass occupies big amount of memory and they all share one stance of another class that I don't have enough memory hold...

Having fixed a memory leak (not the leak of a Python reference, some other stuff I wasn't properly freeing in certain cases) in a C-coded extension I maintain, I need a way to test that the leak is indeed fixed. Being in a hurry, I originally used a q&d hack...: if sys.platform in ('linux2', 'darwin'): def _memsize(): """ this function tries to return a measurement of how much memory this process is consuming, in some arbitrary unit...

Hi I have a JS program that runs localy (under IE6 only) on a PC but it has a memory leak (probably the known MS one!) What applications are there that I could use to look at the memory usage of each object within my JS app to help locate my problem? Thanks

Hi expert, I installed DB2 v8.2 server on Solaris 9 box. When I connect to DB2 using control centre or other applications(except command line), around 12 db2sysc processes pop up and each one consumes more than 2G memory(total 30G memory). The server only has 8G physical memory, so DB2 costs too many memory resources. I tried to reduce the appgroup_mem_sz and app_ctl_heap_sz, but it didn't work. What else can I do?

I am writing a service that monitors when a particular app is started. Works, but I need to get the user who is currently logged in, and of course Environment.UserName returns the service logon (NT_AUTHORITY\SYSTEM). I understand that when the service starts, no user may be logged in, but that's ok, as the app I am monitoring can only be run by a logged in user. Do I need to use WMI to get the user context of Explorer.exe or is there a...

Hello, I am running DB2 V8.2 on AIX. I am looking for a way to get the memory size of a specific db2 agent. I have found the db2mtrk tool that gives me a list of all the applications and heap sizes. Also there is "DB2 Snapshot for Application" but I am looking for a way to capture the data for C code without having to parse through a file. The SNAPSHOT_APPL and SNAPSHOT_APPL_INFO table functions seem to fall short of the information ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
