    in

    print time - $^T, " seconds\nRam:", mem;

    is mem a variable?

    Ram: mem

    Error: the search filter cannot be recongnized

      is mem a variable?

      mem is the subroutine in my original response:

      sub mem{ `tasklist /nh /fi "PID eq $$"` =~ m[(\S+ K)$] }
      but when running the last perl command, I get Error: the search filter cannot be recongnized

      Try again: Ie. cut and paste the code from the post above again.
