I have seen in the past from various companies products graphs which plot memory usage by process, so you can see which process is using the most memory. In addition, there have been CPU usage per process graphs as well. Seeing the below made me think about the memory/per process.
I tried the ps vax command on both an AIX and Redhat box and both worked. Would it be possible to implement this sort of a graph in hobbit?
What I'll do for now (the 4.2 release) is to use a "ps" command in the client that provides this information.
That will allow us to experiment with the best way of tracking memory usage for individual processes. E.g. I do anticipate some problems with how you determine which processes should be tracked, and how to group them (e.g. you don't want to track individual "httpd" processes - you want a total for all of them).
