Antoine Pitrou added the comment: sys.getsizeof() is not for production code, it's for experimenting and getting information at the command prompt. It's quite useful when you know its limitations. I'd argue that implementing __sizeof__ for user types doesn't make much sense (except C extensi

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: This may be CPython specific. Also, sys.getsizeof() hasn't proved to be very useful (I never see anyone use it or see it in production code). Worse, it doesn't even make sense in the case of shared-key dictionaries and whatnot. Accordingly, there is litt
