This is great... And how do I know that I need to use gc.get_referents() to get those objects in case I'm measuring the memory consumption of a teeobject (rather than, say, trusting __dict__, or simply trusting the getsizeof() output at face value)? If sys.getsizeof() is only useful for people who know *already* how an object is implemented internally, then it's actually useless, because those people can just as well do the calculation themselves. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19048> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
