Message-ID: <45BF2823.2090005@symas.com> (raw)
In the it-would-be-nice department... While I was twiddling with swappiness
and benchmarking some code, I thought it would be pretty cool if there was a
node in /proc/<pid> that would show which pages of a process are resident or
nonresident. I'm not sure that it would be useful very often, but I was
thinking one could get a snapshot of that, correlated with traces from a
malloc profiler, to show what portions of a program's memory usage was in
active use vs idle.
