Hi all,
To help identify processes which are writing excessively to flash storage (and therefore contributing to premature 
failure), I've been tasked with developing a utility which can report on a per-process basis the number of bytes written
 during a given boot cycle. I am considering a few options:
1. Use QNX's profiling tools.  From what I know of them, I don't think I can get what I need from them (i.e., total # of
 bytes written by every process), but maybe I'm wrong about that?
2. Implement a file system pass-through resource manager to keep track of every write in a given path. This approach 
would provide all the information I need, but it seems like a lot of work with some nasty corner cases.
3. Use inotify to monitor files & directories in a given path. This seems like a non-starter because I don't see a way 
to correlate writes to the process that is performing them.

A few general points: 
* Performance isn't an issue as long as the system can still function somewhat normally. This utility would not be part 
of a normal running system.
* I'm using SDP 7.1.

Does anyone have any thoughts about whether any of the options I've listed could be viable or suggestions for other 
approaches I haven't mentioned? Thanks in advance for any help!
