This looks pretty useful - I guess it could also be used (with a little tinkering) to return current memory usage - or even have a simple memory usage object with methods for giving the difference from another object of the same class. This way people could use the function however they liked, say doing one bit of analysis and finding out how their usage has changed etc... and shoot warnings / death if usage is too high etc...
There is Devel::Size but that isn't really the same thing, and neither is Benchmark::Harness::MemoryUsage (which also doesn't seem to be actively developed any more). I don't know if there is a general usage memory monitor, it would be really useful.
Just a something something...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
