Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install heapfrag

Usage

> require "heapfrag"
> Heapfrag::stat

{
  :fragmented_pages=>146, # num of non full and non empty
  :pages_total=>154,
  :pages_seen=>154,
  :pages_with_alive=>154, # pages with used slots
  :pages_with_dead=>146,  # pages with free slots
  :pages_free=>0,         # pages completelly free
  :pages_full=>8,         # pages completelly full
  :objs_alive=>47812,     # used slots
  :objs_dead=>14961,      # free slots
                         0% 50% 95%  99% 99.9% 100%
  :heap_pages_fill_cdf=>[0, 22, 116, 133, 142, 154]
}

fragmented = total - full - empty

Quick start

$ rake compile && echo 'require "heapfrag"; Heapfrag::stat' | irb
install -c tmp/x86_64-linux/heapfrag/2.4.10/heapfrag.so lib/heapfrag/heapfrag.so
cp tmp/x86_64-linux/heapfrag/2.4.10/heapfrag.so tmp/x86_64-linux/stage/lib/heapfrag/heapfrag.so
Switch to inspect mode.
require "heapfrag"; Heapfrag::stat
{:fragmented_pages=>146, :pages_total=>154, :pages_seen=>154, :pages_with_alive=>154, :pages_with_dead=>146, :pages_free=>0, :pages_full=>8, :objs_alive=>47812, :objs_dead=>14961, :heap_pages_fill_cdf=>[0, 22, 116, 133, 142, 154]}

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
