I've been using kdb to debug several kernel drivers that I have been working
on and it has proven very useful and reliable.  I do have a problem I'm
facing now, that I suspect is a memory leak consuming all of swap space over
time.   The system is stopped in kdb, and I want to be able to find how much
memory each process has consumed.  I don't want to have to restart the
system under test because it takes about 5 days to reproduce the problem.

Is there an option to the 'ps' function to do this?  Do I have to decompose
the process structures by hand?  
(I wish I had been running 'top' during the test to give me more info.  :-)

Please copy me on replies, since I am not subscribed to the list.

TIA,
Andy
