In Python, you can use the built-in psutil module to query the Python interpreter's memory usage. Here's an example:
#pip install psutil
# Get the current process's memory informationprocess = psutil.Process()mem_info = process.memory_info()# Print the memory usage in bytesprint(mem_info.rss)# Print the memory usage in megabytesprint(mem_info.rss / (1024 ** 2)) |
In the above code, psutil.Process() returns a process object for the current Python interpreter process. We can then call the memory_info() method on this object to get the memory information, which includes the resident set size (RSS) of the process, which is the amount of memory currently occupied by the Python interpreter.
The rss attribute returns the RSS value in bytes, so we divide it by (1024 ** 2) to get the value in megabytes.
