> Jan, how did you estimate the memory usage?

Homebrew mem script:

#!/bin/bash
cat /proc/[0-9]*/stat | awk '{print substr ($2, 2, length($2)-2) " " $24*4096}' | sort 
-k2rn | awk '{cum=cum+$2; printf 
"%-15s%10d%8.3fM%10d%8.3fM\n",$1,$2,$2/1024/1024,cum,cum/1024/1024}'

combined with a while true; do mem ; sleep 1; done

Does anyone know how this is meant to be done; ie, why is 
/usr/bin/time so lame on Linux?
