We have a process which is using a lot of memory, and memory usage is
increasing as it runs. To do some profiling I wrote a perl script which cats
/proc/<pid>/status every 100 seconds.
I am now interested in the memory related fields. I understood some fields,
but some I did not.
Can anybody help me which field(s) is the most relevant for me,
Here is sample output
VmPeak:  8755844 kB
VmSize:  7121544 kB
VmLck:         0 kB
VmHWM:   8271248 kB
VmRSS:   6643780 kB
VmData:  7107696 kB
VmStk:        88 kB
VmExe:      2568 kB
VmLib:      2916 kB
VmPTE:     13716 kB

Tanveer
