The Discussion

  Hey Andrew, Where did you get that great t-shirt ?

  @Roger: They all come from the Microsoft Company Store (the shop on Redmond campus, as opposed to the retail shops we now have). You'll have to come visit campus!

  Excellent presentation, I was using the vmmap earlier today to troubleshoot a memory leak issue and was overwhelmed with the stats. This makes it clear. Thank you!

  Hi,
  
  I understand the Heap Allocations button should allow me to see call stacks, but the button is always disabled (grayed out) no matter what I try. (I used the "Launch and Trace New Process" feature to run my application, but it doesn't help.)
  
  Thanks

  Hi
  
  I want to know the whole system physical and virtual memory map with system.
  how can i know that, as vmmap only tell about particular process.
  As in linux there is /proc/kallsyms. so for windows is there anything similar.

  Hi,
  
  Gr8 information here!
  While analyzing my application using Vmmap, I could see Heap of size 16192KB. However only part of it is committed and rest is reserved.
  Do you know why such a big chunk (16192KB) of Heap is allocated? and who allocates it? (Because my application does not allocate such huge heapmemory).
  
  THanks.
