Off the top of my head, try looking in the proc filesystem:

Code:
cat /proc/meminfo

Cut and paste your results.

I have attached three outputs take at different time.

1st was taken while the process has just started and no table has been opened during that time. (before_open.txt)

2nd was takeb after opening a table, which would consume a considerable amount of memory by malloc() and calloc().(after_open.txt)

3rd was taken after deleting all the rows in that table that would free up lots of previously allocated memory.(after_delete_all.txt)

Please let me know if you need any further info
after_delete_all.txt (1.2 KB) 
after_open.txt (1.2 KB) 
before_open.txt (1.2 KB)

;D

Better to cut-and-paste wrapped in our BB code tags than attached as text, since I'm on my mobile ;D ... Hard to view as an attachment.

Need to create a memory leak

Hi. This might be a strange request, but does anyone have any idea on a simple shell script that would use more and more memory as it ran? Like a purposeful leak. I want to test the behaviour of an already running program when the machine runs out of memory. Thanks! (4 Replies)
