All of a process allocated memory should be made available after it dies otherwise the OS will refuse to launch after some period of time.
What OS are you using ?
How are you measuring the memory usage ?

When allocating memory for two different nodes, the resulting memory are the same. Clearly, this will lead to a mistake. This happened in a function. And the process must be in a function.

Hi,
I'm running a multi-process software system on a Solaris 8 machine. When I monitor the memory usage, I see that the free memory is dropping rapidly, but I can't detect a process that uses this memory.
I'm using "top" to get the free memory and the memory usage of processes.
Thanks. (3 Replies)

We just set up a system to use large pages. I want to know if there is a command to see how much of the memory is being used for large pages. For example if we have a system with 8GB of RAm assigned and it has been set to use 4GB for large pages is there a command to show that 4GB of the *GB is... (1 Reply)

tcl_dumpactivememory
Tcl_DumpActiveMemory(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_DumpActiveMemory(3)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Tcl_DumpActiveMemory, Tcl_InitMemory, Tcl_ValidateAllMemory - Validated memory allocation interface
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
int
Tcl_DumpActiveMemory(fileName)
void
Tcl_InitMemory(interp)
void
Tcl_ValidateAllMemory(fileName, line)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Tcl interpreter in which to add commands.
const char *fileName (in) For Tcl_DumpActiveMemory, name of the file to which memory information will be written. For Tcl_Vali-
dateAllMemory, name of the file from which the call is being made (normally __FILE__).
int line (in) Line number at which the call to Tcl_ValidateAllMemory is made (normally __LINE__).
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
These functions provide access to Tcl memory debugging information. They are only functional when Tcl has been compiled with TCL_MEM_DEBUG
defined at compile-time. When TCL_MEM_DEBUG is not defined, these functions are all no-ops.
Tcl_DumpActiveMemory will output a list of all currently allocated memory to the specified file. The information output for each allocated
block of memory is: starting and ending addresses (excluding guard zone), size, source file where ckalloc was called to allocate the block
and line number in that file. It is especially useful to call Tcl_DumpActiveMemory after the Tcl interpreter has been deleted.
Tcl_InitMemory adds the Tcl memory command to the interpreter given by interp. Tcl_InitMemory is called by Tcl_Main.
Tcl_ValidateAllMemory forces a validation of the guard zones of all currently allocated blocks of memory. Normally validation of a block
occurs when its freed, unless full validation is enabled, in which case validation of all blocks occurs when ckalloc and ckfree are called.
This function forces the validation to occur at any point.
