checkram

checkram(unit='mb', fmt='0.2f', start=0, to_string=True)

Measure actual memory usage, typically at different points throughout execution.

Note on the different functions:

• sc.memload() checks current total system memory consumption

• sc.checkram() checks RAM (virtual memory) used by the current Python process

• sc.checkmem() checks memory consumption by a given object

Example:

import sciris as sc
import numpy as np
start = sc.checkram(to_string=False)
a = np.random.random((1_000, 10_000))
print(sc.checkram(start=start))
