This can be easily done using following command. Copy contents in file and run it like as vmstat command</p> <pre> ### Usage mem_mon.sh (interval) (occurences) e.g sh mem_mon.sh 2 10 ### ### This will give top 10 memory consuming processes ##### wt_time=$1 lmt=$2 let a=0 while [[ $a -lt $lmt ]] ; do ps axwv |sort -nrk 7,7|grep -v "COMMAND" \ |awk 'BEGIN {printf ("MemoryinKb \t ProcessId \t PerCPU \t PerMem \t Command \n")}{t=t+$7 - $10 ;printf("%13d \t %10d \t %6.2f \t %6.2f \t %s \n",$7 - $10,$1,$11,$12,$13)}END{print t}'|head -10 let a+=1 sleep $wt_time done </pre>
