[Trilinos-Users] Is there any method in Trilinos classes thatreturns the amount of memory allocated?

[Bartlett, Roscoe A]

Ernesto,

Developing such a tool would require redefining the global ::new and
::delete functions.  There are lots of issues involved in doing this but
this is not something to be taken lightly (see Item 50 in "Effective
C++: Third Edition").  If Trilinos was an APP that owned the world, this
would be easier.  However, since Trilinos is a library this would be
very hard to do.  This would mean that everyone stop using the built-in
new/delete operators and instead use some Trilinos-specific version;
again, very hard to do ...

Cheers,

Ross

There is no global memory tracking in Trilinos.  We have discussed this,
but never moved toward providing it.
