In Solaris 2.6 and 8
How do I find out how much swap and memory is free?
Also how can I see how much memory each process is consuming?
Thanks in advance (2 Replies)
For example if i have the piece of code as follows:
CountryName = (char *)malloc((strlen(CountryName)+1)*sizeof(char));
memset(CountryName, 0, strlen(CountryName)+1);
CountryName = SOME VALUE
Now how do i free the memory after use of this code???? :confused: (3 Replies)

Does anybody know what maybe the reason? this program is written with Perl. the OS of the machine is Solaris U8. And I... (1 Reply)
Hi guys.
I've a question, if we are using a syscall that receives a string allocated dynamicaly to a determined size, or NUL and it will allocate the apropriate size. We should free the memory or the OS will do it for us?
If a function returns a pointer we should free that poiter when we are done... (7 Replies)

If I understand your question correctly, you are asking for an explanation of Solaris memory manager. You'd better ask Oracle that question because you are talking about Solaris kernel internals.
The operating system kernel has no reason to kick a process's memory set out of real memory until... (4 Replies)

FREE(1) Linux User's Manual FREE(1)NAME
free - display information about free and used memory on the system
SYNOPSIS
free [-b|-k|-m|-g] [-l] [-o] [-t] [-s delay ] [-c count ]
DESCRIPTION free(1) displays the total amount of free and used physical memory and swap space in the system, as well as the buffers and cache consumed
by the kernel.
OPTIONS
Normal invocation of free(1) does not require any options. The output, however, can be fine-tuned by specifying one or more of the follow-
ing flags:
-b, --bytes
Display output in bytes.
-k, --kb
Display output in kilobytes (KB). This is the default.
-m, --mb
Display output in megabytes (MB).
-g, --gb
Display output in gigabytes (GB).
-l, --lowhigh
Display detailed information about low vs. high memory usage.
-o, --old
Use old format. Specifically, do not display -/+ buffers/cache.
-t, --total
Display total summary for physical memory + swap space.
-c n, --count=n
Display statistics n times, then exit. Used in conjunction with the -s flag. Default is to display only once, unless -s was speci-
fied, in which case default is to repeat until interrupted.
-s n, --repeat=n
Repeat, pausing every n seconds in-between.
-V, --version
Display version information and exit.
--help Display usage information and exit
