Hi team, I am looking for a utility that will give me a really powerful
look into the memory usage of my elf binaries
What I want to do is something like this:
    first extract all the symbols and size information using nm -S,
    then graph the information with an expression in section terms ie
(.text|.rodata) vs. an expression in symbol terms ie. symbols starting
('rtos_[.+]|gui_[.+])
    thus the above example would show me the combined ROM useage of all
the sybols being with 'rtos_' or 'gui_'.
even cooler would be then to present the information in a pie chart
fromat like 'filelight' or konqueror's 'radial view' does with the
ability to drill down and look in more detail at a given area.

If you are a programmer and can identify the need I refer to above what
are the tools you are already using to glen this kind of analysis of
memory usage in your programs ??

What I am aiming at here is a powerful tool which will help show me
where to take a scalpel to a slightly overweight binary constructed from
>1000 objects.

Regards,
Chris
