Re: time and mem usage of pgm

On linux, one might use the following:

sub mem{ `ps -o rss $$` =~ m[(\d+)] }
[download]

But directly reading the process stats is preferable:

sub mem {
    local $/;
    open my $fh, '/proc/self/status';
    <$fh> =~ /^VmRSS:\s*(\d+)/m;
}
[download]

yes, it is under linux that I want to measure. How about the time that the whole program takes (sytem, user, wall clock)?	[reply]

How about the time that the whole program takes (sytem, user, wall clock)? See times for 2 out of 3.
