5.1.73 memory
Syntax:
memory ( int_expression )
Type:
- int
Purpose:
- returns statistics concerning the memory management:
memory(0) is the number of active (used) bytes,
memory(1) is the number of bytes allocated from the
operating system,
memory(2) is the maximal number of bytes ever allocated from the
operating system during the current SINGULAR session.
Note:
- To monitor the memory usage during ongoing computations the option
mem should be set (using the command option(mem); , see
also option).
Example:
| ring r=0,(x(1..500)),dp;
poly p=(x(1)+x(500))^50;
proc ReportMemoryUsage()
{ "Memory currently used by SINGULAR :",memory(0),"Byte (",
memory(0)/1023, "KByte)" +newline+
"Memory currently allocated from system:",memory(1), "Byte (",
memory(1)/1023, "KByte)";
"Maximal memory allocated from system :",memory(2), "Byte (",
memory(2)/1023, "KByte)";
}
ReportMemoryUsage();
==> Memory currently used by SINGULAR : 207948 Byte ( 203 KByte)
==> Memory currently allocated from system: 671316 Byte ( 656 KByte)
==> Maximal memory allocated from system : 671316 Byte ( 656 KByte)
kill p;
ReportMemoryUsage(); // less memory used: p killed
==> Memory currently used by SINGULAR : 154712 Byte ( 151 KByte)
==> Memory currently allocated from system: 671316 Byte ( 656 KByte)
==> Maximal memory allocated from system : 671316 Byte ( 656 KByte)
kill r;
ReportMemoryUsage(); // even less memory: r killed
==> Memory currently used by SINGULAR : 144124 Byte ( 140 KByte)
==> Memory currently allocated from system: 671316 Byte ( 656 KByte)
==> Maximal memory allocated from system : 671316 Byte ( 656 KByte)
