Rebol/stats (was Re: Recycle)

system/stats path. I highly recommend Doc Kimbel's help.r which will show you the help info for the rebol/stats function directly. It is at http://rebol.dhs.org/help.r Just put in your user.r file. It gives this:

USAGE: STATS /pools /types /series /frames /recycle DESCRIPTION: System statistics. Default is to return total memory allocated. STATS is a native value. REFINEMENTS: /pools -- Returns: width units free-units units-per-alloc segments mem-in-use /types -- Returns: Datatype count /series -- Returns: total blocks strings other avail free expansions /frames -- Returns: total used unused free values-total /recycle -- Returns: count series-total series-last frames-total frames-last ballast

You may also want to use or study Carl's script in the REBOL library: http://www.rebol.com/library/scripts/mem-stats.r which use rebol/stats to give a detailed print-out. You could also do this:

f: native [ {System statistics. Default is to return total memory allocated.} /pools {Returns: width units free-units units-per-alloc segments mem-in-use} /types "Returns: Datatype count" /series {Returns: total blocks strings other avail free expansions} /frames "Returns: total used unused free values-total" /recycle {Returns: count series-total series-last frames-total frames-last ballast} ] HTH -Larry

[...] You can also use a script called "mem-watch" (on my rebsite) which allow you to see all memory informations (except stats/types) in a separate window while typing your commands in the console. (a quick hack that may be more funny than really usefull...) :) HTH, DocKimbel. rebsite: http://rebol.dhs.org/index.r or using TesTPanel : Sites/Ecotope/DocKimbel
