Subject: [PATCH] PSS(proportional set size) accounting in smaps
Date: Tue, 14 Aug 2007 09:33:50 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <387055231.26624@ustc.edu.cn> (raw)
Message-ID: <20070814013350.GA9182@mail.ustc.edu.cn> (raw)

The "proportional set size" (PSS) of a process is the count of pages it has in
memory, where each page is divided by the number of processes sharing it. So if
a process has 1000 pages all to itself, and 1000 shared with one other process,
its PSS will be 1500.
               - lwn.net: "ELC: How much memory are applications really using?"

The PSS proposed by Matt Mackall is a very nice metic for measuring an process's
memory footprint. So collect and export it via /proc/<pid>/smaps.

Matt Mackall's pagemap/kpagemap and John Berthels's exmap can also do the job,
providing pretty much details.  But for PSS, let's do it in a simple way.
