Hi Victor, Fwiw, there is some per-OS (and even apparently per-Linux-distribution) solution mentioned here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/774556/peak-memory-usage-of-a-linux-unix-process
For me on Arch Linux, "/usr/bin/time -v CMD" returns a reasonable value in "Maximum resident set size (kbytes)". I guess that on OSes where this works, it gives a zero-overhead, exact answer. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ Speed mailing list Speed@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/speed
