VMS used to have a very cool program that would watch the
address space of a specified process.  It displayed a "live"
status in a rectangular array on a terminal with a character
for each page's status (readable, writable, dirty, swapped out,
etc.). IIRC there was an "@" that showed the page contained the
program counter.  The display updated several times per second,
and it was pretty interesting to watch long-running programs
(compiles, LaTeX runs, etc.).  I've always sort of kept an eye
out for something like that for Linux, but have never stumbled
acrosss anything...
