Some benchmarks such as
io_matlab
can only run on Linux because:/proc
/proc
This PR addresses all three such that benchmarks that measure memory usage also work on macOS.
setrlimit
raises on macOSpsutil
rusage
struct returned byos.wait4()
The key contribution is that final bit.
os.wait4()
waits on a process and returns itsrusage
struct. This struct contains the peak RSS usage by the child process.os.wait4()
is available on Unix systems, including Linux and macOS. So this method adds macOS support. The other upside is that this is a true max, not a max of polling samples.
