I am using the command "pmap" to understand where all the elements of my application are laying and found that I just do not understand how and why it is layed out in a particular fashion. Is there documentation that could help me understand memory management under Linux? Thank you for your time. Phy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
