good to know.  now i'm using this, which uses the same shell over and  
over rather than starting a new one:

cfp:~ > cat a.rb
require 'session' # gem install session

module Process
   def self.size pid = Process.pid
     @sh = Session.new
     @sh.execute "ps wwwaux -p #{ pid }", :stdout => stdout=[]
     vsize, rsize = stdout.last.split(%r/\s+/)[4,2]
   end
end

p Process.size


cfp:~ > ruby a.rb
["31052", "3388"]
