While profiling code it's possible to need information about memory usage. You can use directly memory_get_usage() if PHP was compiled with the --enable-memory-limit. Otherwise this is a better way to get it.

Notice that you can't get memory usage if PHP is running in safe_mode.

<?php

/**
*  Get Memory usage of current process
*
* @return string
*/
function GetMemoryUsage()
{
    if (
function_exists('memory_get_usage'))
    {
       return
memory_get_usage();
       
    } else {
       
       
$safe_mode = (bool)ini_get("safe_mode");
        if (
$safe_mode) {
            return
"Error : you can't get Memory usage in safe_mode.";
        }

       
$output = array();
        if (
substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3) == "WIN")
        {
           
           
exec('tasklist /FI "PID eq ' . getmypid() . '" /FO LIST', &$output);           
           return
substr($output[5], strpos($output[5], ':') + 1);
           
        } else {
           
           
exec('ps -eo%mem,rss,pid | grep '.getmypid(), &$output);           
            return
$output;
        }
    }
}
?>



Usage Examples
echo GetMemoryUsage() . "\n"; // 6,776 K

$a = str_repeat("Hello", 42);

echo GetMemoryUsage() . "\n"; // 6,764

unset($a);

echo GetMemoryUsage() . "\n"; // 6,764
?>
