Can some *nix literate person please tell me how to determine how much memory my mongrel process(es) are using? I think there’s a way to to this with ps or top but I don’t know the parameters to specify. I tried top but it seems to look at all the proceses on the server when I want to see only mine.

Thanks.

$ ps ux

The VSZ column is the amount of virtual memory used in KB. The RSS column is the amount of real memory used in KB.

Thanks! That was exactly what I needed.
