There's something in your question I don't understand:
If a process has 1gb in virtual memory, of which 500mb in physical,
then this means that it has 500mb in swap. Or in other words: 500mb that the
process wanted in physical but couldn't. (isn't that what you asked to know)
Obviously I'm

No, that is not what it means.
Virtual memory amount might be different then physical memory amount due

Now (again - according to my understanding) under contention - i.e. when

Hi List.
I heard (but haven't actually seen) that in MS-Windows the system keeps
track of some notion of working set, which is supposedly (if I
understand correctly) the total size of pages that an application
referenced recently - whether these are currently resident or swapped
