Don't. In the larger scale of things, people started to realise in the 1970s that application programs which had handled their own memory management and possibly timesharing (e.g. APL on an IBM S/370) had to be rewritten as soon as operating systems started to provide virtual memory.
The only reason this wasn't really seen on PCs was that the advent of virtual memory was accompanied by a gross change in the overall programming model, so very few people had to deal with unmodified DOS programs suddenly behaving unpredictably when run on OS/2 or Windows.
So it's entirely in order to report e.g. the amount of heap currently allocated for debugging purposes, but don't assume that there's a useful fixed maximum.
