Hmm, the version of pmap on my computer doesn't have an X option: chrismyers:/home/cmyers # pmap -X 19180 pmap: invalid option -- 'X' usage: pmap [options] pid [...] -d, --device display offset and device numbers -q, --quiet hide header and memory statistics -A, --limit=low,high limit results to the given range -V, --version display version information -h, --help display this help but runs without it specified. Since we've been talking about virtualbox in this case, here is the output from pmap: 63012K writable-private, 93212K readonly-private, 1181444K shared, and 1152128K referenced while top's output says: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 19180 root 20 0 1306m 33m 0 S 9.6 0.4 342:47.58 VirtualBox (I'm more curious than anything ;) I've been using openSuSE (at home and work) and SLES (at work) for about 6 years now, and while I've learned a ton, there's sooooo much still to learn :) ) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
