Guppy-pe can give us detailed statistics about which python objects are taking space in the heap, the relationships between them and some more useful data. Particularly useful is the ability to take a snapshot of the current state and later print the diff between both points.
See http://guppy-pe.sourceforge.net/heapy_Use.html#heapykinds.Use.monitor.
The following patch to sugar-shell will periodically print some interesting information about memory usage. It may not apply cleanly, but anybody interested in using it will need anyway to read and understand this code.
