Script to track peak memory consumption

[Alexander Dymo]

Here's the script I found useful to track peak memory consumption when
optimizing memory. It uses some internal libc stuff to monitor memory
usage without any performance penalty. For example, valgrind's memory
profilers never finish for me when I profile KDevelop loading some
huge project. This memusage.sh does.

This script is for ubuntu, but I think it should work on other systems.
