PetscMemoryGetMaximumUsage#

Returns the maximum resident set size (memory used) for the program since it started (the high water mark).

Synopsis#

Not Collective

Output Parameter#

  • mem - memory usage in bytes

Options Database Key#

  • -memory_view - Print memory usage at end of run

  • -log_view_memory - Print memory information per event

  • -malloc_view - Print usage of PetscMalloc() in PetscFinalize()

Note#

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.
