Memory size of a hash or other object?
ruby
Solution
`ObjectSpace.memsize_of` does work in 1.9.3, documented or not:
puts RUBY_VERSION #=>1.9.3
require 'objspace'
p ObjectSpace.memsize_of("a"*23) #=> 23
p ObjectSpace.memsize_of("a"*24) #=> 24
p ObjectSpace.memsize_of("a".*1000) #=> 1000
h = {"a"=>1, "b"=>2}
p ObjectSpace.memsize_of(h) #=> 116
Problem
What's the best way to get the size of a given hash (or any object really) in bytes in Ruby 1.9.3? The solution to "Find number of bytes a particular Hash is using in Ruby" does not appear to be valid in 1.9.3, because `memsize_of` isn't in the documentation for ObjectSpace.
