for heap, i would say usage of malloc_hook refer http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man3/malloc_hook.3.html
essentially a layer it put above malloc layer for managing memory allocation here the recording on heap can be done for stack size, print the variable address as soon a you enter a function say main, and then where ever you want an estimate, declare an auto variable and print its address canary concept is also good to make the fundamentals http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_buffer_overflow Best Regards Ashish Goel "Think positive and find fuel in failure" +919985813081 +919966006652 On Tue, Jul 6, 2010 at 9:30 AM, sharad <sharad20073...@gmail.com> wrote: > Without using sophisticated debuggers, how do you estimate the memory > usage in your program?
