Returns information about memory buffers belonging to a specific memory pool that are used as part of a full-text crawl or a full-text crawl range.

Note

The following column will be removed in a future release of [!INCLUDEmsCoName][!INCLUDEssNoVersion]: row_count. Avoid using this column in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use it.

Column	Data type	Description
pool_id	int	ID of the allocated memory pool. 0 = Small buffers 1 = Large buffers
memory_address	varbinary(8)	Address of the allocated memory buffer.
name	nvarchar(4000)	Name of the shared memory buffer for which this allocation was made.
is_free	bit	Current state of memory buffer. 0 = Free 1 = Busy
row_count	int	Number of rows that this buffer is currently handling.
bytes_used	int	Amount, in bytes, of memory in use in this buffer.
