Edit Question
Title
Body
I am trying to create an app that can "Purposely" consume RAM as much as we specify immediately. e.g. I want to consume 512 MB RAM, then the app will consume 512 MB directly. I have search on the web, most of them are using while loop to fill the ram with variable or data. But I think it is slow way to fill the RAM and might not accurate either. I am looking for a library in python about memory management. and came across these http://docs.python.org/library/mmap.html . But can't figure out how to use these library to eat the RAM Space in one shot. I ever saw an mem-eater application, but don't know how they were written... So, is there any other better suggestion for Fill the RAM with random data immediately? Or Should I just use while loop to fill the data manually but with Multi-Threading to make it faster?
