       pagemon is a program that allows one to interactively monitor the memory pages of a process.

       Monitor the thunderbird process:
               sudo pagemon -p thunderbird

       Monitor process 1 (init), zoom scale of 4:
               sudo pagemon -p 1 -z 4

       pagemon - a tool to monitor memory pages.

       pagemon options are as follow:

       -a     enable  automatic  zoom  mode,  this will change the zoom level to show the entire page map in the
              window, up to a maximum zoom level of 999.

       -ddelay
              delay in microseconds between data refreshes, the default is 10,000  microseconds  (1/100th  of  a
              second).

       -h     show help.

       -p     specify  the  process id (PID) or name of the process to monitor. If a name is given, then pagemon
              will monitor the first process that matches the name.

       -r     read pages into memory. This will force all pages in the process to be read into physical memory.

       -tticks
              specify ticks between dirty page checks. The default is 60 ticks; the larger the value the  longer
              time between dirty page checks.

       -v     enable  VM  information  view.  This  is  equivalent  to  pressing the 'v' or 'V' key when running
              pagemon.

       -zzoom
              specify the default zoom level on page view, the default is 1 (that  is  1-to-1  view  of  pages).
              Higher values increase the zoom level so more pages are represented in the map view.
