Show HN: I wrote a tool in Rust for tracking all allocations in a Linux process
Thanks for sharing! I built a similar tool (also in Rust) which allows tracing system calls, and could be used for this purpose. I wanted to expose the functionality both as a library and CLI, but for now I’ve only published documentation on using the CLI.
