That's not really what I'm after. Let me try an example:
function foo($id) {
static $foos = array();
if (empty($foos[$id]) {
$foos[$id] = load_foo($id);
}
return $foos[$id];
}
When load_foo() is slow (e.g., lots of DB traffic or remote-server calls
or whatever), such caching can have a significant performance boost.
Sometime after foo() has been called 15 times from 30 places in code,
when I get to the end of the request (or just every time I call foo()
would be fine) I want to be able to do something like:
$cost = get_memory_used_by($foos);
So that I can determine how much memory that caching is costing me over
the lifetime of the page, and determine if it's a worthwhile trade-off.

something like this?
you can put it wherever you like and returns an array for further
processing. You could optionally add a second argument to set the index
to a name and check if the name exists to add 1 to the end of the name
so your indexes stay maintained.
