 * I’m surprised that no-one has written one yet, unless I just can’t find it.
 * I’m looking for a memory profiling plugin for WP that will give peak memory use
   for the site, individual plugins, etc. to see where the hogs are. I do run a 
   lot of plugins, but I’ve had to push my memory_limit up to 64M which seems a 
   bit excessive.
 * Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions gratefully received.

 * No-one?
 * So no-one is interested in finding out how much memory their site is using/wasting?
   That’s a surprise.

 * Here. create a plugin with this content.
 * <?php
    /* Plugin Name: Mem Usage */
 * function mem_init() {
    $GLOBALS[“memused”] = “memory usage after wordpress init:”.
   memory_get_usage() . ” Bytes“; }
 * function mem_foot() {
    echo $GLOBALS[“memused”]; echo “memory usage after wordpress
   is done: ” . memory_get_usage() . ” Bytes“; print_r($GLOBALS); }
 * add_action(“init”, “mem_init”);
    add_action(“wp_footer”, “mem_foot”); ?>
