Way to see how much memory each addon is using?

Is there any way to track this? Seems like I have a memory leak, trying to track it down.

Task manager would show you wouldn't it, under the services tab or something.

I think they mean individual memory consumed by each of the dozens of add-ons... this would be handy!

Maybe an extension to: Shissu's LUA Memory ?

Unfortunately, given the current architecture and API this is impossible (or very close to it). There is the LUA function

collectgarbage("count")

which gives you some idea of the overall memory usage. You can combine this with the

EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED (integer eventCode,string addonName)

event however the data you get doesn't seem to make any sense based on either the size of the addon on disk or how much memory it actually uses. This event is called for each addon loaded but the memory usage between calls is all over the place and doesn't seem to related to actual memory usage of the addon.

If the addon stored everything in one root variable then you could estimate the memory used by iterating through objects and manually counting but this wouldn't include any locally defined variables.

Note that the VotansSettingMenu and other memory related addons are just using this overall memory usage and the current max memory usage setting.

Awesome, i'll check it out!
