memory usage monitoring


  • Subject: memory usage monitoring

how can I monitor the memory usage of my application? my goal is to be able to detect anomalies without necessarily any stack traces (I can monitor the overall activity and narrow the investigation later). I need to be able to avoid false positive as well: I noticed that if monitor memory usage manually using top, I can see the app increasing in size, but if I check with ObjectAlloc, the app size does not increase, even for top. So I suspect that just looking at the process mem usage would not sufice, although it might provide a good start.

I can't use tools like ObjectAlloc because it grows to the point where it crashes within a few hours. The app allocates and releases large amounts of data over time.

thanks

stephane
