From the alioth FAQ:
How did you measure memory use?
By sampling GTop proc_mem for the program and it's child processes
every 0.2 seconds. Obviously those measurements are unlikely to be
reliable for programs that run for less than 0.2 seconds.
I had read this, but that's as far as I got with it!
Probably best to ensure this sampling thread is running on a different
hardware thread to the tested program...

It should be running in an entirely different process, but that depends
on how tango.sys.Process deals with processes.
