I have a summary search. I get errors.

I need to know how much memory my search consumes. How do I achieve that?

Thanks

Try diskUsage from the job inspector for the search, and compare that to max_rawsize_perchunk in limits.conf.

To get to the Job Inspector click the I from the search page after you run the search.
