Memory usage
============
(Highly unscientific.)
Command used to gather static memory usage:
```sh
grep ^Vm "/proc/$(ps fax | grep [m]etrics-bench | awk '{print $1}')/status"
```
Program used to gather baseline memory usage:
```go
package main
import "time"
func main() {
time.Sleep(600e9)
}
```

Program used to gather metric memory usage (with other metrics being similar):
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"metrics"
"time"
)
func main() {
fmt.Sprintf("foo")
metrics.NewRegistry()
time.Sleep(600e9)
}
