Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Troubleshooting sudden high memory usage Post 303042159 by RavinderSingh13 on Tuesday 17th of December 2019 01:30:48 AM

Thanks anaigini45 for showing/letting us know your efforts to solve this. IMHO if you know which application is culprit and I believe you are NOT owner of this, then first step we could take is reaching to customer(who is owner of application) and inform them about this, then comes discussion part with them, like how they have configured memory and other stuff in their application/programs etc.

Thanks,
R. Singh

NAME
memusagestat - generate graphic from memory profiling data SYNOPSIS
memusagestat [option]... datafile [outfile] DESCRIPTION
memusagestat creates a PNG file containing a graphical representation of the memory profiling data in the file datafile; that file is gen- erated via the -d (or --data) option of memusage(1). The red line in the graph shows the heap usage (allocated memory) and the green line shows the stack usage. The x-scale is either the num- ber of memory-handling function calls or (if the -t option is specified) time. OPTIONS
-o file, --output=file Name of the output file. -s string, --string=string Use string as the title inside the output graph. -t, --time Use time (rather than number of function calls) as the scale for the X axis. -T, --total Also draw a graph of total memory consumption. -x size, --x-size=size Make the output graph size pixels wide. -y size, --y-size=size Make the output graph size pixels high. -?, --help Print a help message and exit. --usage Print a short usage message and exit. -V, --version Print version information and exit.
