Try running gsi -:d2 . It will give you GC reports of the form:
*** GC: 1 ms, 30.7M alloc, 199K heap, 41.1K live (21% 27144+14936)
In parentheses you have the number of bytes allocated for movable
objects and for nonmovable objects (still and permanent).
You can also get this information by calling (##process-statistics).
The last two numbers in the vector are the number of bytes allocated
for movable objects and for nonmovable objects. For details look for
the call to ##process-statistics in the file lib/_nonstd.scm .
