if showMemUsageChk.checked then

[Pascal Avertissement] main.pas(9232): W1000 Symbole 'GetHeapStatus' désapprouvé

found this information:

It is recommended to use GlobalMemoryStatus from the Windows unit instead of GetHeapStatus. However, in systems with more than 2 GB memory, GlobalMemoryStatus returns erroneous results. Therefore, a newer Windows API function should be used: GlobalMemoryStatusEx

thank you mars.
sadly, after i worked to get GlobalMemoryStatusEx working, i noticed there's no equivalent to TotalAllocated.
-.-

i will have a look at GetMemoryManagerState when i have time
