How do I check the maximum amount a RAM a process uses similar to how time works?



$ time mvn package
real 0m35.796s
user 0m32.925s
sys 0m1.559s

$ maxmem mvn package
688 MB

          Try using GNU time instead of the built-in.



          On CentOS, you would install it with yum install time then run it with /usr/bin/time <command>



          Note that you need to specify the full path; otherwise the shell will want to use the built-in time

          • Oh wow I didn't know that was a built-in and /usr/bin/time already gives memory usage.
