I once write a little thing called HighWaterMark: http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~bjpop/code.html It is GHC specific, and it doesn't count memory allocated by foreign stuff (ie C stack etc). I haven't tried it out on a modern GHC, so there is probably some bit rot. Cheers, Bernie.

Hi,
Haskell has getCPUTime to get the amount of CPU Time that has been consumed, but has no equivalent for memory use. I would like to get something similar to -RTS -t, but from a Haskell program. I'm not overly fussed about what memory statistic I get, as long as it is something that corresponds in some way to the amount of memory that has been used - cells, heap size, live heap etc are all fine.
So, I'm after something like: getMemoryUse :: IO Integer
Is there anything I can use to do this?
Thanks
