How to get the size of process in Bytes

Hi All,

We have the commands top and ps through which we can find out the size of the running process.
These commnds are giving the size of my process in MB after rounding of the size.
Is there any way by which I can get the size of my process in Bytes or KBytes.
Any help would be greatly apppreciated.

Thanks

uname -a

Please send the uname -a output.

uname -a
SunOS silver 5.10 Generic_125100-10 sun4u sparc SUNW,A70

ps -aefly
S UID PID PPID C PRI NI RSS SZ WCHAN STIME TTY TIME CMD
T root 0 0 0 0 SY 0 0 Aug 14 ? 0:08 sched
S root 1 0 0 40 20 416 2464 ? Aug 14 ? 0:01 /sbin/init -r

-y Under a long listing (-l), omits the
obsolete F and ADDR columns and includes an
RSS column to report the resident set size
of the process. Under the -y option, both
RSS and SZ (see below) will be reported in
units of kilobytes instead of pages.


Best regards
joerg
