[编辑:适用于Ubuntu 14.04: /usr/bin/time -v命令确保使用完整路径。]

看起来/usr/bin/time确实给了你这个信息，如果你输入-v(这是在Ubuntu 8.10上)。例如，参见下面的最大常驻集大小:

重新发明轮子，用手工制作bash脚本。快速干净。

我的用例:我想监控一台RAM较少的linux机器，并想在它运行在大量使用时获取每个容器使用情况的快照。

#!/usr/bin/env bash

threshold=$1

echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'): Running free memory monitor with threshold $threshold%.."

while(true)
    freePercent=`free -m | grep Mem: | awk '{print ($7/$2)*100}'`    
  do

  if (( $(awk 'BEGIN {print ("'$freePercent'" < "'$threshold'")}') ))
  then
       echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'): Free memory $freePercent% is less than $threshold%"
       free -m
       docker stats --no-stream
       sleep 60  
       echo ""  
  else
       echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'): Sufficient free memory available: $freePercent%"
  fi
  sleep 30

done

样例输出:

Heaptrack是一个具有GUI和文本界面的KDE工具。我发现它比valgrind更适合了解进程的内存使用情况，因为它提供了更多细节和火焰图。它还更快，因为它检查valgrind的次数更少。它会给你最大的内存使用量。

不管怎样，跟踪rss和vss是误导的，因为页面可以共享，这就是为什么memusg。你真正应该做的是跟踪/proc/[pid]/smaps中Pss的和或使用pmap。GNOME系统监视器曾经这样做，但它太昂贵了。

请务必回答这个问题。提供详细信息并分享您的研究!

对不起，我是第一次来这里，只能问问题。

使用建议:

valgrind --tool=massif --pages-as-heap=yes --massif-out-file=massif.out ./test.sh; grep mem_heap_B massif.out | sed -e 's/mem_heap_B=\(.*\)/\1/' | sort -g | tail -n 1

然后:

grep mem_heap_B massif.out
...
mem_heap_B=1150976
mem_heap_B=1150976
...

这与顶部命令在相同时刻所显示的非常不同:

14673 gu27mox   20   0 3280404 468380  19176 R 100.0  2.9   6:08.84 pwanew_3pic_com

Valgrind的测量单位是什么??

/usr/bin/time -v ./test.sh从来没有回答-你必须直接将可执行文件提供给/usr/bin/time:

/usr/bin/time -v  pwanew_3pic_compass_2008florian3_dfunc.static  card_0.100-0.141_31212_resubmit1.dat_1.140_1.180   1.140 1.180 31212

如果进程运行了至少几秒钟，那么您可以使用以下bash脚本，它将运行给定的命令行，然后将峰值RSS打印到stderr(替代RSS您感兴趣的任何其他属性)。它有点轻量，它适用于Ubuntu 9.04中包含的ps(我不能说时间)。

#!/usr/bin/env bash
"$@" & # Run the given command line in the background.
pid=$! peak=0
while true; do
  sleep 1
  sample="$(ps -o rss= $pid 2> /dev/null)" || break
  let peak='sample > peak ? sample : peak'
done
echo "Peak: $peak" 1>&2
