here's what it's doing (note that PAGE_SIZE was originally an external 
variable which got once filled with sc_sysconf values,
i needed to patch it away because of the conflict with the macro of the 
same name)

reading the values ...

         if(fd==-1) return;
         read(fd,line,256);
         sscanf(line,"%d %d",&task->size,&task->rss);
         close(fd);
