I noticed CPAN Proc::ProcessTable, which is worth a look, if only to peer at the code and note the portability, er, challenges. If the module that reports memory usage itself consumes significant memory, that is a pest when trying to figure out how much memory a Perl data structure is using. That is the nice thing about Merijn's original sbrk() -- it is lightweight in the extreme. /-\
