Where does the Memory value for Monitored Processes in Infrastructure Overview come from?

Question

Hi All,

I had a question come to me asking where the process memory value comes from, seen in the screenshot below. I tried charting the available measures in Dynatrace and nothing seems to show the same value.

Thanks,

Tom

To answer my own question (credit to douglas.pak@dynatrace.com), it appears that the value being reported is the Working Set, obtained from GetPerformanceInfo. This can be seen by creating a custom chart and using the procee measure "Current Overall Memory Consumption". However, for some reason the value being reported in the Infrastructure view seems to always be slightly lower than the actual value. Not exactly sure why that would be.
