Memory usage

I would like to know more about memory usage while Singular is executing a command (e.g. std).
As I understand, option(mem); would do.
When I switch on this option and start a computation, nothing happens (no [...k] in the output).
It is not sure that Singular is not killed before finishing a computation (e.g. out of memory).

Is there a special configure option to enable this option(mem) logging?
I had to compile and build Singular myself.
Thanks for any help in advance.

There is no special compile option for this:
it is a property of omalloc, so it is active unless --disable-omalloc
is given to configure.
You should also check the command memory:

Thank you for your reply. Probably it was disabled somehow during compilation time.
