Seems like our getrusage does not return any memory size information, only use of time ("ru_utime", "ru_stime").
I suspect this is not what you are looking for.
As to memory: Rich Walsh has elaborated somewhere in this forum about what the various memory sizes mean and how they play together:

It would be nice if we could get that added to "getrusage".

This is pretty interesting. I did a little testing of the executable and found it works (at least to some extent), but - since it still doesn't launch any graphical interface like gnuplot - I'll surely have to get back to it.
What's sure is that I need to know what actually getrusage does (or, for what's worth, GetProcessInfo from the Win32 counterpart) - the other methods in that function involve using the /proc interface which OS/2 allegedly doesn't implement.
