Dear all,
I am trying to investigate the memory usage of our code by using the new TMemStat tool from ROOT.

I have added to my sim macro the following line just at the beginning:

TMemStat mm("gnubuiltin");


and I have processed 10k DPM events.
First of all, I have seen our famous common error:

 **** GTRIGI: IEVENT=   2214 IDEVT=   2214 Random Seeds =       4357           0
-I FairPrimaryGenerator: 3 primary tracks from vertex (0, 0, 0)Event Time = 0(ns) 
-I- PndStack: Filling MCTrack array...
-I- PndStack: Number of primaries        = 3
              Total number of particles  = 397
              Number of tracks in output = 138
Error: Symbol #include is not defined in current scope  run_sim_tpccombi_dpm.C:131:
Error: Symbol exception is not defined in current scope  run_sim_tpccombi_dpm.C:131:
Syntax Error: #include <exception> run_sim_tpccombi_dpm.C:131:

Error: type G__exception not defined FILE:/home/spataro/trunk/pandaroot/macro/pid/mtest/./run_sim_tpccombi_dpm.C LINE:131

 *** Break *** segmentation violation
-I- PndStack: Updating track indizes...Root > Function run_sim_tpccombi_dpm() busy flag cleared

 *** Break *** segmentation violation


and the macro has crashed.
After, if I have understood correctly, I open a new ROOT session and type:

spataro@briareos:~/trunk/pandaroot/macro/pid/mtest$ rt

Ok, the file has crashed then he needs to be recovered, no problems.
At the end I have three canvas:

index.php?t=getfile&id=6306&private=0

index.php?t=getfile&id=6307&private=0

index.php?t=getfile&id=6308&private=0

I admit that I am not able to find in these plots what is going wrong. The file contains also a Tree which I can explore, but it does not tell me no many new informations.

Would the experts please suggest me what to plot and to show, in order to find what is making our simulation faulty?
Thanks in advance
