It's already there. memory_get_usage() and memory_get_usage(true) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-30 09:33:08] busia at tiscali dot it Description: ------------ You said me (#48368) that unset != free. The memory can remain occupied also after I unset an array, that memory is reused when I set a new variable and, for this reason, it's not a leak. Ok, now it's clear but a problem remains: how can I optimize my code when I cannot see the php internal memory use? I need a function like: memory_get_usage() - memory_allocated_but_usable_for_newly_created_variables(); Setting a variable and seeing that memory use don't change make scripts impossible to optimize. Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48434&edit=1
