Virtual Size actually is swapped memory + non swapped memory (physical mem amount for executable code + for data)..
Additiniol your program can probability use libraries..for this kernel present shared librarys..And your program wants memory from SHR memory space..
So according to me you maybe can use pmap tool for threshold memory limit
Hi,
First of all I appreciate this group very much for its informative discussions and posts.
Here is my question.
I have one process whose virtual memory size increases linearly from 6MB to 12MB in 20 minutes. Does that mean my process has memory leaks?
In what cases does the... (4 Replies)

Hi,
Would any one be so kind to explain me :
are ulimits defined for each user seperately ? When ?
Specialy what is the impact of :
max locked memory
and
virtual memory
on performance of applications for a user.
Many thanks.
PS :
this is what I can see in MAN :

Hi,
I am looking to work on unix systems which include (hp-ux, ibm aix, solaris and linux). I want to get the total virtual address space of a process, the used virtual memory i am able to get without any problem. I have tried using getrlimit and getrlimit64, but that gives only ... (4 Replies)
Hi All,
Does anyone know what the best commands in the UNIX command line are for obtaining this info:
current CPU usage
memory usage
virtual memory usage
preferably with date and time parameters too?
thanks

I was running a program and it stopped and showed "Out of Memory!". at that time, the RAM used by this process is around 4G and the free memory size of the machine is around 30G. 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 all,
Is there any command which shows the virtual memory usage of a particular process in HP-UX machine.
I have tried with ps, top but could not get what I want.
Kindly provide me a solution.
Thanks in Advance

setpgid
setpgid(2) System Calls setpgid(2)NAME
setpgid - set process group ID
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int setpgid(pid_t pid, pid_t pgid);
DESCRIPTION
The setpgid() function sets the process group ID of the process with ID pid to pgid.
If pgid is equal to pid, the process becomes a process group leader. See intro(2) for more information on session leaders and process group
leaders.
If pgid is not equal to pid, the process becomes a member of an existing process group.
If pid is equal to 0, the process ID of the calling process is used. If pgid is equal to 0, the process specified by pid becomes a process
group leader.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The setpgid() function will fail if:
EACCES The pid argument matches the process ID of a child process of the calling process and the child process has successfully
executed one of the exec family of functions (see exec(2)).
EINVAL The pgid argument is less than (pid_t) 0 or greater than or equal to PID_MAX, or the calling process has a controlling ter-
minal that does not support job control.
EPERM The process indicated by the pid argument is a session leader.
EPERM The pid argument matches the process ID of a child process of the calling process and the child process is not in the same
session as the calling process.
EPERM The pgid argument does not match the process ID of the process indicated by the pid argument, and there is no process with
a process group ID that matches pgid in the same session as the calling process.
ESRCH The pid argument does not match the process ID of the calling process or of a child process of the calling process.
