I installed the hobbit client on an OS X 10.4 server and found that memory was not being reported. I setup the bb-memory.sh script on the server and I get the following: Memory routine not defined for this operating system (Darwin). I thought this to be strange since the original bb-memory.sh supported BSD and OS X/Darwin was built on OpenBSD. Does anyone know of a fix or work around?
Even though Darwin has some roots in BSD, it is not a BSD kernel. And memory statistics is where OS's vary the most.
The Hobbit client does use Darwin's "vm_stat" command to collect some memory statistics, but I cannot remember exactly which. If you could provide an example output from this command, or any other commands that would be useful to estimate memory utilization, that would be helpful.
