Best method for measure memory usage during matlab operation

How can I get the memory usage for execution of an instruction in matlab? I look like for something like the tic toc function. The problem is that the method must work on windows and on linux.

I try to use this function that use the whos command but it doesn't work, it return a wrong value.

I would get the memory usage of this command

solution = matrix \ knownTerms;

where solution and knownTerms are two vector. How can I get the memory used by this operation?

If your code is inside a function, you can use the memory mode of the Matlab Profiler to get rough function-level memory usage. Run profile on -memory, run your code, and then run profile report. If you need to get the memory usage of just that one statement, wrap it in a local function.
