A tool that can give numerous reports on memory usage on Linux systems.
|
|
Unlike existing tools, smem can report proportional set size (PSS),
|
|
which is a more meaningful representation of the amount of memory
|
|
used by libraries and applications in a virtual memory system.
|
|
|
|
Because large portions of physical memory are typically shared among
|
|
multiple applications, the standard measure of memory usage known as
|
|
resident set size (RSS) will significantly overestimate memory usage.
|
|
PSS instead measures each application's "fair share" of each shared
|
|
area to give a realistic measure.
