Hi All,
 
when I issue
ps -efl |grep 7309
 8 S   oracle  7309     1  0  46 22        ? 504289        ?   Jul 27 ?        
0:01 oracledev (LOCAL=NO)
 
it is giving the memory used by this process is 504K. Where as when I did the 
top or pmap for this process

it is showing around 4GB (which includes shared mem and private mem)
 
Can someone throw somelight on this, what is the exact memory used by the above 
process ?
 
(also how to get the sort by SIZE column in ps -efl 
 
(and how to get the details from oracle database howmuch mem being used by a 
session).
 
Thanks in advance
Raj
