//_________________________________________________________________________
//Basic Memory Leak utility.
//  
//  You can use this tiny class to *see* if your program is leaking.
//  Usage:
//  AliMemoryWatcher memwatcher;
//  some program loop on events here {
//    if ( nevents % x == 0 ) 
//    {
//    // take a sample every x events
//      memwatcher.watch(nevents);
//    }
//  }
//  TFile f("out.root","RECREATE");
//  memwatcher.write();
//  f.Close();
//  In the output root file you'll get 3 graphs representing
//  the evolAliPHOSon, as a function of the number of events, of :
//  - VSIZE is the virtual size (in KBytes) of your program, that is sort of
//  the total memory used
//  - RSSIZE is the resident size (in KBytes), that is, the part of your 
//  program which is really in physical memory.
//  - TIME is an estimate of time per event (really it's the time elasped
//  between two calls to watch method)
//  WARNING: this is far from a bulletproof memory report (it's basically 
//  using UNIX command ps -h -p [PID] -o vsize,rssize to do its job).
//  It has only been tested on Linux so far.
//  
//  But by fitting the VSIZE by a pol1 under ROOT, you'll see right away
//  by how much your program is leaking.
