Small tools

procinfo

Memory map details for single process. List virtual memory, physical pages, physical flags...

Information is grabbed from /proc/<pid>/smaps, /proc/<pid>/pagemap, /proc/kpageflags

Usage: procinfo <pid...>

shmat

Attach shared memory segments to current process

shmem

Shared memory tool

connections

Establish lots of connections to Oracle database

find_instances

Find Oracle database instances, connect to DB and run some request. Env variables (SID, lib...) and user are found automatically.
