title: How to measure the stack size of a process?
body: <p>How do I find the stack size of a process ?
  /proc/5848/status gives me VmStk but this doesnt change </p>
  
  <p>No matter how much ever while loop and recursion I do in my test program this value hardly changes.</p>
  
  <p>when I looked at /proc/pid/status all of the process has 136k and have no idea where that value comes from.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
