Plugin Memory Usage

This plugin try to measure and record the memory usage of different WordPress plugins. When you activate or deactivate a plugin, it measures the memory usage. The difference between these measurements gives an estimate of each plugin's memory impact. These measurements are estimates and may vary. Factors like caching, other active plugins, and WordPress itself can influence memory usage. This plugin also show the current memory usage of your wordpress site. If you use more than 80% of memory limit this plugin gives you the option to increase the memory limit.

Upload the plugin folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory or download from WordPress. Activate plugin. You can now access the control panel from the widget in the dashboard.
