bookProfiling Memory Usage

Understanding how much memory your PHP script consumes is essential for writing efficient and scalable applications. Memory profiling in PHP allows you to monitor and analyze the amount of memory used by your scripts at different points during execution. PHP provides built-in functions like memory_get_usage and memory_get_peak_usage to help you track current and peak memory consumption, respectively. By using these functions, you can identify code areas that use excessive memory and optimize them to prevent performance bottlenecks or out-of-memory errors.
