Memory requirement of a running job

Hi,
is there a way to determine how much memory is consumed by a certain job?
I want to know how much memory on the application server is used for a currently running job.
Many thanks in advance

One of the tools in the Designer toolbar is Resource Estimator. It will do all that and more. You can also set the environment variable that causes player processes to dump their PID into the job log at startup and monitor those processes' memory consumption.

Hi,
super, thanks Ray.
I suppose you refer to the APT_PM_SHOW_PIDS variable.
kind regards

That looks reasonable. Curiously, perhaps, I don't have all the environment variables in my head at the moment.
