i've worked with "the other" blogging software (excuse for that ) and learned about the php memory limit and how easy it is to increase memory use by installing more plugins ...
Then i found the wp-memory plugin. It shows the real-time memory use in the dashboards footer.
Is it possible to have a similiar plugin for S9Y? I'm very interested to know, how much memory my S9Y blog use. It could be a clue for installing more plugins in s9y and how better is s9y memory consumption in compare to ...
You are allowed to mention wordpress, it's a respectable blogging engine cms ;)
I can't really help you though. I just wanted to note that s9y has a feature like this integrated in the backend, memsnap, which would show the memory usage in the plugin section, but it seems to me like that functionality is broken. Maybe another developer can shed light on this.
