Measuring Memory Usage with vmstat

vmstat displays a wealth of information; use the -n option to make it more readable on an 80-column display.

The column to watch most closely is po. If it is not zero, the system is paging. If the system is paging consistently, you probably need more RAM.

you can also take a look at output from
# swapinfo -tam

If the script runs long enough:

You can find it in Glance Plus(paid add in product) and drill into it ans see statistics on memory use.

Hi

restart the process and watch it's memory usage

UNIX95= ps -e -o ruser,vsz,pid,args|sed '1d'|sort -rnk2 | more

vsz :-
The size in kilobytes (1024 byte units) of the core image of the process.

Check the man page for ps for more options
