process.memoryUsage()

• 返回: <Object>

  • rss <integer>
  • heapTotal <integer>
  • heapUsed <integer>
  • external <integer>

process.memoryUsage()方法返回Node.js进程的内存使用情况的对象，该对象每个属性值的单位为字节。

例如:

console.log(process.memoryUsage());

会得到:

{
  rss: 4935680,
  heapTotal: 1826816,
  heapUsed: 650472,
  external: 49879
}

heapTotal 和 heapUsed 代表V8的内存使用情况。 external代表V8管理的，绑定到Javascript的C++对象的内存使用情况。 rss, 驻留集大小, 是给这个进程分配了多少物理内存(占总分配内存的一部分) 这些物理内存中包含堆，栈，和代码段。

对象，字符串，闭包等存于堆内存。 变量存于栈内存。 实际的JavaScript源代码存于代码段内存。

• Returns: <Object>

  • rss <integer>
  • heapTotal <integer>
  • heapUsed <integer>
  • external <integer>

The process.memoryUsage() method returns an object describing the memory usage of the Node.js process measured in bytes.

For example, the code:

console.log(process.memoryUsage());

Will generate:

{
  rss: 4935680,
  heapTotal: 1826816,
  heapUsed: 650472,
  external: 49879
}

heapTotal and heapUsed refer to V8's memory usage. external refers to the memory usage of C++ objects bound to JavaScript objects managed by V8. rss, Resident Set Size, is the amount of space occupied in the main memory device (that is a subset of the total allocated memory) for the process, which includes the heap, code segment and stack.

The heap is where objects, strings, and closures are stored. Variables are stored in the stack and the actual JavaScript code resides in the code segment.

When using Worker threads, rss will be a value that is valid for the entire process, while the other fields will only refer to the current thread.
