What tool(s) did you use to obtain this figure?


This particular figure was gathered using perfmon logs collecting once per second from my application, while running in WinDbg to break on getMBlocks(). The particular memory variables tracked are "Private Bytes" and "Working Set."


Did you try GHC's heap profiler?
Or simply running your program with +RTS -Sstderr will give you a clue about the shape of the heap usage - each line is a single GC, and it includes the amount of live data at that point.

If your program has a flat heap profile and yet is still grabbing more memory, then something else is going on.


Yes I did try the profiler, but I couldn't really garner any useful information from it. Most likely because I don't understand how to use it correctly. :) I should revisit this however, as I have since discovered and fixed some leaks. It should at least look different.

Thanks,
Rich
