monitor memory consumption of Teststand and Labview

[LVFan]

We use Teststand2.0.1 and Labview 6.1 on our test equipment (Win2000/Nt).
Sometimes these teststations run out of virtual memory.
Is it possible to programatical get a snapshot of the memory consumption of Labview and Teststand. (Similar to the Windows Task Manager or the VI-Profiler-Tool).
Then I could insert trace-steps into the stationmodel and log informations like time, location and memory consumption to a file.

Maybe, this is possible by using a window function, but I don't know how.

There are two VI's you may want to experiment with.

they are;

...\vi.lib\platform\system.llb\memstats.vi

and

...\vi.lib\utility\sysinfo.llb\Get Memory statistics.vi

These may or may not help. One of them maybe for RT only.

Please let me know if these helped.

I cannot interpret the values memstats.vi
returns and they doesn't correspond with the values from the Task-Manager.

Get Memory statistics.vi just returns the VI-Metrics. These seems to be static values (like filesize?).

To give an example for my problems:
In some cases I had forgotten to properly close Teststand-ActiveX-Refnums and this leads to an increasing need for virtual memory.
