🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

1) she hands you back a human readable string showing the size, rss, shr, txt and data of the memory used by the current process. and like, an actual example? here:

"size: 301m, rss: 11m, shr: 8m, txt: 52k, data: 2248k"

2) same energy, same five fields — size, rss, shr, txt and data — but this time it's the memory of the given process (the one whose pid you passed, periodt). and the example is the exact same:

"size: 301m, rss: 11m, shr: 8m, txt: 52k, data: 2248k"
