Description:
------------
I'm per posing that a function be created to return the size of a variable in bytes, for the purpose memory management tracking.

Possible name for this function:

size()
memsize()
bytesize()

Comments welcome.

Memory_get_usage seems to give the entire memory used but not for a specific variable. Not quite what Nathan asked for.
