A question about memory usage

Hi all, I have a server with 4GB of RAM and I wanted to know how much memory is being used by a PostgreSQL. To do so I have executed the following: ps -A -o rss,vsz,command|grep postgres | awk '{rss += $1; vsz += $2 } END { print "Real: ",rss/1024"MB Virtual: ",vsz/1024"MB" }' And the r

firefox / Xorg memory usage / swap

oup (so I could say "all users in group 'staff' are limited to a total memory usage at any one time of 4GB RAM" or similar)? Any suggestions and ideas most welcome! Thanks, Dave. I don't know the answer to your query. But if I was in your place I would ask Con Kol
