We could bind to Rts.c in the GHC runtime, and get all the stats programmatically that you can get with +RTS -s
A long time ago I made a simple binding which has been packaged for cabal by Gwern Branwen. The package is called highWaterMark: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/highWaterMark As the name suggests it tells you the upper limit of RTS allocated memory. It does not tell you about memory allocated by foreign calls. I can't test it at the moment, but it is probably bit-rotten. Maybe it is something to start with? Cheers, Bernie.
