A new function, getsizeof(), takes a Python object and returns the amount of memory used by the object, measured in bytes. Built-in objects return correct results; third-party extensions may not, but can define a __sizeof__() method to return the object’s size. (Contributed by Robert Schuppenies; bpo-2898.)
