Look at the difference of memory usage for the same command..."sleep 200 &" in RH7.2, RH3.0 and Suse machine.
vsize gives the Virtual memory size in bytes.
RH7.2:
eurika120:arijit>sleep 200 &
[1] 24775
eurika120:arijit>ps -eo pid,comm,size,sz,vsz,vsize | grep sleep
24775 sleep - 484 1936 1936
[1] 24775
eurika120:arijit>ps -eo pid,comm,size,sz,vsz,vsize | grep sleep
24775 sleep - 484 1936 1936
RH3.0:
vgamd126:arijit>sleep 200 &
[1] 13892
vgamd126:arijit>ps -eo pid,comm,size,sz,vsz,vsize | grep sleep
13892 sleep 268 9705 38820 38820
[1] 13892
vgamd126:arijit>ps -eo pid,comm,size,sz,vsz,vsize | grep sleep
13892 sleep 268 9705 38820 38820
Suse:
linuxemt10:arijit>sleep 200 &
[1] 31378
linuxemt10:arijit>ps -eo pid,comm,size,sz,vsz,vsize | grep sleep
31378 sleep 192 1779 7116 7116
[1] 31378
linuxemt10:arijit>ps -eo pid,comm,size,sz,vsz,vsize | grep sleep
31378 sleep 192 1779 7116 7116
Any idea why is this huge difference in Virtual Memory in doing a very simple and same thing in diff Linux flavors...?
Does anybody know of any Perl module that can be used as a wrapper around the most unportable ps command?
Thanks,
Arijit
