A simple tool to gather memory usage when files are required. More info at: http://bitmonkey.net/post/308322913
#
# Created by Eric Lindvall <eric@sevenscale.com>
#
# WHAT: Provides a simple overview of memory allocation occuring during a
# require.
#
# For a longer explanation, see my post at:
#
# http://bitmonkey.net/post/308322913/tracking-initial-memory-usage-by-file-in-ruby
#
# NOTE: The numbers provided are of self + children, meaning the same will
# be attributed to multiple files at once.
#
# Also, memory that is no longer referenced (and would be freed) is still
# taken into account.
#
# It is intended to give a simple overview of allocations to track down gross
# offenders, not give an exact view of your memory usage.
