As Ken Brown wrote, you need https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86_64%2Fprocps-ng%2Fprocps-ng-3.3.17-1&grep=procps-ng -- You can get very substantial performance improvements by not doing the right thing. - Scott Meyers, An Effective C++11/14 Sampler So if you're looking for a completely portable, 100% standards-conformant way to get the wrong information: this is what you want. - Scott Meyers (C++TDaWYK)
