verified Jun 28, 2026

ps-mem is a Python utility designed to accurately report the core memory usage per program on Linux, distinguishing itself from tools that report per-process. It calculates RAM usage by summing both private and shared memory across all processes belonging to a given program. The current stable version is 3.14, released in May 2022, and it operates as a command-line tool, primarily written in Python 3, though it also supported Python 2.
