Loaded Shared Libraries

Hi,

I have a problem about loaded shared libraries. I'm issuing ‘procldd' for a process and AIX shows me the loaded shared libraries. I'm collecting these libraries and counting their size. They were 350MB. After this, I'm issuing ‘ps vx' and I'm seeing that the process takes 130MB from AIX's memory. Do you think that I have any mistakes?

Thank you.

I am not sure about what you want to achieve but maybe 'svmon' is the command you are looking for. E.g. use
Code:
svmon -P <yourpid>

to see how much memory a process uses, how much memory of it is pinned and how much memory is in paging space, how big shared library segments are and so on. Have a look at the svmon man page.
