[DUG] Monitoring Memory use

[Conor Boyd]

John,

FastMM gives you extensive memory logging abilities in your Delphi
projects: http://fastmm.sourceforge.net/

In detailed modes, it can give you stack traces for when objects which
weren't freed successfully were created, etc.

HTH,

Conor

I use Sysinternals Process explorer to monitor the memory that the IDE
and my programs are using (eg looking for memory leaks etc).
(Incidentally the
D2007 IDE seems much improved in not using memory up over time)

Sysinternals give several different measure of memory use: Working set,
Peak working set, virtual memory, Page fault etc.  I am wondering which
is the best to track to judge the real impact on Windows and which is
the best to watch for picking up memory leaks?
