Name:

    pgetrusage - Get resource consumption information
      Synopsis:  pgetrusage - selfinfo childinfo

Description:

      Calls the POSIX getrusage() function to obtain information on
      memory consumption, context switches, I/O operatin count, etc,
      for both the main process and its children.  Information is
      returned in dictionaries.

Remarks:

    At least under Linux, child processes return 0 for all
      entries, while the main process seems to produce meaningfull data
      only for minflt and majflt, i.e., page reclaims and faults.
