Short: Monitors memory allocations. Source.

This is a 'monitor' of memory being allocated, a bit like SnoopDOS but
for memory.
Run it from a shell, press control and C to quit it, or send it a break
signal. You can also draw an icon for it and run from WB if you so wish. You
can also redirect it anywhere you want, eg mempatch >mem.log
Be BLOODY CAREFUL with this program!! I suggest it for debugging, checking
a suspicious program, but NOT for general use and CERTAINLY NOT all the
time. This patch only patches AllocMem(), not AllocVec() or AllocPool() or
other memory functions. If you want this, tell me! It also doesn't patch
FreeMem. The task priority of this program is -40 to help avoid system lockups
This program is resident and reentrant, but not pure. That means you can
make the program resident, and run it many times, BUT if you run more than
one copy at once it will crash!!! You have been warned!
