------------------------------------

Cindy,

Thanks! This would come useful.

The branch-1 is a maintenance branch that should not receive new features first 
and diverge from trunk. Please also provide a trunk patch that can go in first, 
so we maintain feature parity. Or if trunk does not require this, please 
explain.
                
> Add peak memory usage counter for each task

> Each task has counters PHYSICAL_MEMORY_BYTES and VIRTUAL_MEMORY_BYTES, which 
> are snapshots of memory usage of that task. They are not sufficient for users 
> to understand peak memory usage by that task, e.g. in order to diagnose task 
> failures, tune job parameters or change application design. This new feature 
> will add two more counters for each task: PHYSICAL_MEMORY_BYTES_MAX and 
> VIRTUAL_MEMORY_BYTES_MAX.
