A tool that can give numerous reports on memory usage on Linux systems.
Unlike existing tools, smem can report proportional set size (PSS),
which is a more meaningful representation of the amount of memory
used by libraries and applications in a virtual memory system.
Because large portions of physical memory are typically shared among
multiple applications, the standard measure of memory usage known as
resident set size (RSS) will significantly overestimate memory usage.
PSS instead measures each application's "fair share" of each shared
area to give a realistic measure.
