Time & Memory of Programs
Hi,

I have a program called "myProg" which calls two other programs "prog1" and "prog2" with system command in it.

When I type
Code:
./myProg

to the terminal, everything is cool. The only things that are missing:
1) I would like to measure the time elapsed when myProg runs (I do not want the change the code).
2) I also want to measure the maximum memory which is used by myProg during execution.



Thanks in advance,
-hkullana

The first one is easy: time ./program The second I'm not sure of.
