Hi, and thanks for your reply. I totally forgot to take the dynamic loader into consideration, which is my bad.
But another problem is that the peak value cannot align with the max_rss getting from `getrusage` function, which
is ~1000KiB. I guess that it has some connection with max_rss inheriting, but I'm not sure about that. Do you have
any opinion about it?

Makes sense to me...

Basically, its not *really* a totally null program. You've got the dynamic
loader ld-linux running first, which then *doesn't* run main() directly, but
rather invokes _start, which needs to happen so that __libc_start_main can get
called and initialize stuff lie stdio, malloc, and other such t hings, before
it finally calls main().
Personally, I'm surprised that ld-linux and glibc initialization can finish
without going over 500k - even more so if shared library text pages are
included in memory.peak. Somebody else can wade into that mess, I admit
having been around since kernel 2.5.47 or so, and I never did understand the
memory accounting for shared text pages....
