Help me linux fedi! Is there some tool to see the actual raw amount of memory an app is taking? Without linux memory shenaningans. Just the actual raw thing.

Im trying to debug if my game actually frees memory or just pretends to do so. I am not sure if what I see in htop is actually what's happening under the hood.

edit: I used pmap and that was pretty good, but I also figured out my problem. I was constantly loading textures etc. to memory but never freeing them. Thanks for the help everyone!
