There is an existing protocol for estimating the size of allocated memory. __sizeof__. Python API sys.getsizeof() and C API _PySys_GetSizeOf(). But it is too heavy for using in GC.

As a fast approximation the default implementation of the __sizeof__ method can be used:

    tp_basicsize + tp_itemsize * Py_SIZE(self)
