I'm not sure what you mean.
I got the process size by watching 'top' during compilation.
You should know how much RAM you got, but you can do
	dmesg | grep "total memory"
if you don't; and
	swapctl -l
will show you the current swap statistics. 
	man swapctl
will help you if you want to add swap (e.g. a swapfile).

Bye,
