What unix flavor do you use? If it's Solaris try parising prstat output. Or you could install top and parse its output for that too. -jim

If your ps command supports -l, that includes the SZ column (as I replied to your earlier post). Per the ps man page, SZ column is defined as: "The size in physical pages of the core image of the process, including text, data, and stack space." Default physical memory page size is usually 4KB.
