Thanks for describing the use case. By the way, when working with ET I also wanted to track the memory usage of the package a couple of times, which made me lament that there's no useful memory profiler in the stdlib.

A memory profiler can be a ten-line Python function which, however, does need to be tuned to the application. So I'm not sure it can be provided by the stdlib in a reasonable fashion beyond what's already there, but it may not be necessary to have it in the stdlib, either.

Regards, Martin
