PSS is the alternative to RSS... You probably won't find an explanation anywhere else but the kernel source code: Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt: ===== The /proc/PID/smaps is an extension based on maps, showing the memory consumption for each of the process's mappings. For each of mappings there is a series of lines such as the following: 08048000-080bc000 r-xp 00000000 03:02 13130 /bin/bash Size: 1084 kB Rss: 892 kB Pss: 374 kB [...] The first of these lines shows the same information as is displayed for the mapping in /proc/PID/maps. The remaining lines show the size of the mapping (size), the amount of the mapping that is currently resident in RAM (RSS), the process' proportional share of this mapping (PSS), ===== so, PSS translates to "proportional share of the mapping(size) that is resident in RAM" PSS will do fine, I suppose :^) Auke _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
