PetscMemoryGetMaximumUsage

 Returns the maximum resident set size (memory used) for the program.

Synopsis

#include "petscsys.h" 
PetscErrorCode  PetscMemoryGetMaximumUsage(PetscLogDouble *mem)
Not Collective

Output Parameter

mem - memory usage in bytes

Options Database Key

-memory_view - Print memory usage at end of run
-malloc_log - Activate logging of memory usage

Notes

The memory usage reported here includes all Fortran arrays (that may be used in application-defined sections of code). This routine thus provides a more complete picture of memory usage than PetscMallocGetCurrentUsage() for codes that employ Fortran with hardwired arrays.
