Size of a table (in bytes) in Q - kdb

How can I read the size of a table (in bytes) in Q?
I know that hcount returns the size of a file in bytes, but I can't find something similar for tables (or in general any object...)

−22!x is an optimised shortcut to count -8!x
q)(-22!trade)~count -8!trade
1b
q)\t:100 count -8!trade
3596
q)\t:100 -22!trade
839

this is serialized (wire) object size
play around with \w
this will give you object size in memory
q)a:til 10000
q)count -8!a
40014
q)\w
176464 67108864 67108864 0 0 2137387008j
q)b:til 10000
q)\w
242000 67108864 67108864 0 0 2137387008j
q)242000-176464
65536
q)\ts b,a
0 131200j
q)131248%2
65624f
q)

After some searching, it appears that count -8!tablename does the trick.

what are using large mem_reserve in a .net application?

We have an asp.net web service application that is having OutOfMemory issue with IIS w3wp.exe. We got mini memory dump of w3wp when OOM happened, and we see it has large mem_reserve but small managed heap size. Question is how can we find out what is using mem_reserve (virtual address space). I expect to see some mem_reserve but not 2.9G. Since mem_reserve doesn't add up to eeheap, would it be from unmanaged heap? then anyway to confirm that?

If we recycle w3wp, then all memory will go back to system. So there seems no memory leak. I understand that mem_reserve is mapped to virtual address, and are allocated space but not committed. Question is: is there a way to figure out what is using up all these virtual address.
I have memory dump, but I don't have access the the server to get performance counter or something.
Thanks folks!!

Detect number of bytes required for an arbitrary number in Scala

I'm trying to figure out the simplest way to write a function to detect the amount of bytes required for a number in Scala.
For instance the number
0 should be 0 bytes
1 should be 1 byte
127 should be 1 byte
128 should be 2 bytes
32767 should be 2 bytes
32768 should be 3 bytes
8388607 should be 3 bytes
8388608 should be 4 bytes
2147483647 should be 4 bytes
2147483648 should be 5 bytes
549755813887 should be 5 bytes
549755813888 should be 6 bytes
9223372036854775807 should be 8 bytes.
-1 should be 1 byte
-127 should be 1 bytes
-128 should be 2 bytes
-32767 should be 2 bytes
-32768 should be 3 bytes
-8388607 should be 3 bytes
-8388608 should be 4 bytes
-2147483647 should be 4 bytes
-2147483648 should be 5 bytes
-549755813887 should be 5 bytes
-549755813888 should be 6 bytes
-9223372036854775807 should be 8 bytes
is there any way to do this besides doing the math figuring out where the number is wrt 2^N?
After all the precisions in the comments, I guess the algorithm for negative numbers would be: whatever the answer for their opposite would be; and Long.MinValue is not an acceptable input value.
Therefore, I suggest:
def bytes(x: Long): Int = {
val posx = x.abs
if (posx == 0L) 0
else (64 - java.lang.Long.numberOfLeadingZeros(posx)) / 8 + 1
}
Tests needed.
As I mentioned, you're basically asking for "what's the smallest power-of-2-number larger than my number", with a bit of adjustment for the extra digit for the sign (positive or negative).
Here's my solution, although the result differs for 0 and -128, because, as Bergi commented on your question, you can't really write 0 with 0 bytes, and -128 fits in 1 byte.
import Math._
def bytes(x: Double): Int = {
val y = if (x >= 0) x + 1 else -x
ceil((log(y)/log(2) + 1)/8).toInt
}

Any suggestion?
SBCL does not allow you to allocate more than (sb-ext:dynamic-space-size) bytes on the heap. Here you have a 512MB default size (536870912 bytes) and the Lisp program already was using nearly that amount when it attempted to make another allocation.
You could double the amount of heap space available to 1024MB by starting SBCL with --dynamic-space-size 1024. However, as several comments point out, there may be a memory leak, where objects are referenced somehow proportional to the time that the system has been running, so this will offer only a temporary respite.
The (room t) standard Common Lisp function call might help debug this, if you call it periodically.
More advanced code like this http://dwim.hu/darcsweb/darcsweb.cgi?r=HEAD%20hu.dwim.debug;a=headblob;f=/source/path-to-root.lisp#l42 which delves into the SB-VM internal map of allocations could shed more light, and SBCL has a statistical profiler, http://www.sbcl.org/manual/#Statistical-Profiler that supports reporting on allocations too.

Padding in MD5 Hash Algorithm

I need to understand the Md5 hash algorithm. I was reading a documents and it states
"The message is "padded" (extended) so that its length (in bits) is
congruent to 448, modulo 512. That is, the message is extended so
that it is just 64 bits shy of being a multiple of 512 bits long.
Padding is always performed, even if the length of the message is
already congruent to 448, modulo 512."
I need to understand what this means in simple terms, especially the 448 modulo 512. The word MODULO is the issue. Please I will appreciate simple examples to this. Funny though, this is the first step to MD5 hash! :)
Thanks
Modulo or mod, is a function that results in telling you the remainder when two numbers are divided by each other.
For example:
5 modulo 3:
5/3 = 1, with 2 remainder. So 5 mod 3 is 2.
10 modulo 16 = 10, because 16 cannot be made.
15 modulo 5 = 0, because 15 goes into 5 exactly 3 times. 15 is a multiple of 5.
Back in school you would have learnt this as "Remainder" or "Left Over", modulo is just a fancy way to say that.
What this is saying here, is that when you use MD5, one of the first things that happens is that you pad your message so it's long enough. In MD5's case, your message must be n bits, where n= (512*z)+448 and z is any number.
As an example, if you had a file that was 1472 bits long, then you would be able to use it as an MD5 hash, because 1472 modulo 512 = 448. If the file was 1400 bits long, then you would need to pad in an extra 72 bits before you could run the rest of the MD5 algorithm.
Modulus is the remainder of division. In example
512 mod 448 = 64
448 mod 512 = 448
Another approach of 512 mod 448 would be to divide them 512/448 = 1.142..
Then you subtract 512 from result number before dot multiplied by 448:
512 - 448*1 == 64 That's your modulus result.
What you need to know that 448 is 64 bits shorter than multiple 512.
But what if it's between 448 and 512??
Normally we need to substract 448 by x(result of modulus).
447 mod 512 = 447; 448 - 447 = 1; (all good, 1 zero to pad)
449 mod 512 = 1; 448 - 449 = -1 ???
So this problem solution would be to take higher multiple of 512 but still shorter of 64;
512*2 - 64 = 960
449 mod 512 = 1; 960 - 449 = 511;
This happens because afterwards we need to add 64 bits original message and the full length have to be multiple of 512.
960 - 449 = 511;
511 + 449 + 64 = 1024;
1024 is multiple of 512;

What exactly does stand IKB for?

I have a question which goes as:
IKB is equal to:
(a) 1k bytes (b) 1024 bytes (c) 210 bytes (d) none of these
The answer says (b), but I haven't heard of this before, so my question is what exactly is IKB?
with thanks to Kilobyte
If you do a quick google, you will find a lot of explanations,
something like Bits and Bytes : An Explanation
This is almost certainly supposed to read “1KB” or 1 kilobyte, which is usually taken to mean 1024 bytes rather 1000 bytes.
"1kb" == "1 kilobyte" == 1024 bytes
"IKB" doesn't mean any of these things.
So I guess "d)" is the answer.
Can you say "Trick Question"? ;)
kilobyte (kB) 10^3 kibibyte (KiB) 2^10 = 1.024 × 103
megabyte (MB) 10^6 mebibyte (MiB) 2^20 ≈ 1.049 × 106
gigabyte (GB) 10^9 gibibyte (GiB) 2^30 ≈ 1.074 × 109
terabyte (TB) 10^12 tebibyte (TiB) 2^40 ≈ 1.100 × 1012
petabyte (PB) 10^15 pebibyte (PiB) 2^50 ≈ 1.126 × 1015
exabyte (EB) 10^18 exbibyte (EiB) 2^60 ≈ 1.153 × 1018
zettabyte (ZB) 10^21 zebibyte (ZiB) 2^70 ≈ 1.181 × 1021
yottabyte (YB) 10^24 yobibyte (YiB) 2^80 ≈ 1.209 × 102
This is all SI decimal prefixes(left)and EC binary prefixes(right)
as you can see not one of them used "lkb" so it must be a typo
