    I am trying to monitor the resident memory size of some apache processes to
    find out what the memory footprint is like. I was planning on using the perl
    Proc::ProcessTable module, but it seems to be lacking information:

    uid: 0
    gid: 0
    pid: 78297
    ppid: 78296
    pgrp: 78297
    sess: 78297
    flags: sldr
    utime: 10.000000
    stime: 12.000000
    time: 22.000000
    wchan: select
    start: 1129576848.000000
    euid: 0
    egid: 0
    fname: apache
    state: select
    ttydev:
    ttynum: -1
    cmndline: /usr/local/sbin/apache
    priority: 0

    If I run the same script on a linux box, I get a table field called rss and
    size, which is exactly what I am looking for here. The system is FreeBSD
    4.10.

    Any pointers would be great. Thanks!
