The thread is about memory and not about CPU. Use other switches for
ps to see CPU usage statistics.
If your question is not related to the topic of the thread, open up your own thread, thanks.

Why not use nmon? It is really helpful collecting your performance stats and easy to set up. With nmon2rrd you can create graphs from the collected data.

IPCS(1) BSD General Commands Manual IPCS(1)
NAME
ipcs -- report System V interprocess communication facilities status
SYNOPSIS
ipcs [-abcmopqstMQST] [-C system] [-N core]
DESCRIPTION
The ipcs program provides information on System V interprocess communication (IPC) facilities on the system.
The options are as follows:
-a Show the maximum amount of information possible when displaying active semaphores, message queues, and shared memory segments. (This
is shorthand for specifying the -b, -c, -o, -p, and -t options.)
-b Show the maximum allowed sizes for active semaphores, message queues, and shared memory segments. The ``maximum allowed size'' is
the maximum number of bytes in a message on a message queue, the size of a shared memory segment, or the number of semaphores in a
set of semaphores.
-c Show the creator's name and group for active semaphores, message queues, and shared memory segments.
-m Display information about active shared memory segments.
-o Show outstanding usage for active message queues, and shared memory segments. The ``outstanding usage'' is the number of messages in
a message queue, or the number of processes attached to a shared memory segment.
-p Show the process ID information for active semaphores, message queues, and shared memory segments. The ``process ID information'' is
the last process to send a message to or receive a message from a message queue, the process that created a semaphore, or the last
process to attach or detach a shared memory segment.
-q Display information about active message queues.
-s Display information about active semaphores.
-t Show access times for active semaphores, message queues, and shared memory segments. The access times is the time of the last con-
trol operation on an IPC object, the last send or receive of a message, the last attach or detach of a shared memory segment, or the
last operation on a semaphore.
-C system
Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the default ``/netbsd''.
-M Display system information about shared memory.
-N core
Extract values associated with the name list from the specified core instead of the default ``/dev/kmem''. and semaphores.
-Q Display system information about messages queues.
-S Display system information about semaphores.
-T Display system information about shared memory, message queues and semaphores. (This is shorthand for specifying the -M, -Q, and -S
options.)
If none of the -M, -m, -Q, -q, -S, -s, or -T options are specified, information about all active IPC facilities is listed.
RESTRICTIONS
System data structures may change while ipcs is running; the output of ipcs is not guaranteed to be consistent.
FILES
/dev/kmem default kernel memory
/netbsd default system name list

BUGS
This manual page is woefully incomplete, because it does not at all attempt to explain the information printed by ipcs.
