Greetings all, I'm trying to determine exactly how much memory each instance is using. I'm assuming it is the value for "Total Memory Allocated" (If someone knows a better way, please let me know)
On one instance, I have a negative value for "Total space in arena" and "Space in ordinary blocks in use". I've never seen that before and am wondering what it means and if it's a bad thing. This is also my largest, busiest instance. Since this is an undocumented command, I can't really find a reference on what this stuff means!
