Hi all, Is there a (portable) way with boost libs to check memory usage? Best regards, Olivier

I would like to know this too, so if anybody knows please enlighten us :-)

I have an application, where I need to track memory usage to be able to take decision based on memory usage stats. I ended up writing my own allocators (which padded each allocation) with a stat module on the side, I was hoping a library provided this functionality, but found none.

The only memory allocators I'm aware of are that of Boost.Pool and Boost.Interprocess. Providing statistics about memory usage would be a valuable addition to any of those if it isn't already there
