Suggestions to measure peak memory usage during parallel processing #6
Description
Hi Drew,
When used correctly, parallel processing over multiple cores brings down the time taken to process. But the memory usage might be difficult to measure. (Its easy for one R session with peakRAM which essentially call gc to get information of maximum memory used).
Unless, I missed something in memuse, it hard to do it inside R. I was thinking of scraping output of top or free unix commands. Any ideas?
