[RESOLVED] How to check available memory?
I have a need to monitor available memory while my application is running, as a hard number and compared to available memory. How can I do this?

Re: How to check available memory?
How about My.Computer.Info.AvailableVirtualMemory and My.Computer.Info.AvailablePhysicalMemory?

And then use Math.Round to round it up and divide it by 1024 3 times to get GBs. This is assumnig every PC your application will interact with will have at least 1 GB memory. This is probably a safe assumption

Did you do as I suggested so that you could get the size in a readable format? Or do you need to read it in bytes?

Re: [RESOLVED] How to check available memory?
No, the information isn't for display.
I have a multi-threaded application that is running into problems... I get an "out of memory" exception. So I needed a way to track the memory usages so I can see when and where it starts to spiral out of control. In this instance, human readable in GB chunks is a drawback, not a benefit... more granularity in the raw numbers. |
