D.2.3.8 kmemory

Procedure from library general.lib (see general_lib).

Usage:
kmemory([n,[v]]); n,v integers

Return:
memory in kilobyte of type bigint
n=0: memory used by active variables (same as no parameters)
n=1: total memory allocated by Singular

Display:
detailed information about allocated and used memory if v!=0

Note:
kmemory uses internal function 'memory' to compute kilobyte, and is the same as 'memory' for n!=0,1,2

Example:
 
LIB "general.lib";
kmemory();
==> 201
kmemory(1,1);
==> // total memory allocated, at the moment, by SINGULAR (kilobyte):
==> 2187
