System administrators and developers often need to monitor the memory usage of individual processes to ensure optimal performance and prevent system resources from being over-utilized. One useful tool for Linux that can assist in this task is ps_mem.py, a Python script that reports memory usage of processes with shared memory divided appropriately. Below, we'll explore how to use this tool effectively by integrating it into routine monitoring tasks. A1: ps_mem.py is a Python script used for measuring memory usage of processes on a Linux system. It provides an accurate representation by allocating shared memory to each process uniquely, giving a clearer picture of memory usage per process. Q2: Where can I find and how do I install ps_mem.
