You can use tusc and look for the brk calls. You can also use wdb's heap profiling commands if you need more than just the highwater mark.

Hi,

UNIX95=1 ps -p???? -o comm,pid,etime,sz=KB
(physical memory size)

UNIX95=1 ps -p???? -o comm,pid,etime,vsz=KB
(virtual mem size)

on a while do script will give you an online output (use your process id instead of ????).
