There is  great utility written by Kenneth Lu, called Ram HighWater.  It is as
simple as starting HighWater, telling it what application you want it to
watch, and then running the program.  It is suggested that you have your app
go through all its routines, printing and the like.  After you have made the
app jump through its hoops, go to HighWater and it will tell you the greatest
amount of ram the app used.  I think it is a great tool and is offered as
freeware.  (Thanks, Ken!)

	I have version 1.0.2 and it has this site:

I hope this helps.
