I have C++ exe file( no source code) and need to run many large dataset under unix, but how to know the memeroy usage for one dataset?

I think "top" is not good and if using the profiler, it seems no free download, any ideas?

If, as you say, you're using Unix, valgrind[^] could be useful - it's an open source profiling tool suite. If you are using a compatible Unix system, dtrace[^] could be useful. If you're using OS X, then Shark[^] could be used.
