Memory used by a specific process

[Avi]

Hi all,



In my program I need to know the memory used by certain applications. I was
able to get the free available memory on the machine, but not the memory
that is used by a specific application.



Is there a way of doing it?



Thanks,

Avi

Avi,

You will have to look at the performance counters for the system, and
get the memory for a specific instance of an app.

Hope this helps.

The System.Diagnostics.Process class holds a lot of memory related
properties, is there anything specific you are missing.

Thanks all,



I used to use the performance counters' "Available MBytes" which gave me the
machine available memory which was not enough for me. I found the counter I
needed "Private Bytes" which gives the memory used by a single process



Thanks for all your help,
