------------------------------------

Thanks Uwe !

> RamUsageEstimator.NUM_BYTES_ARRAY_HEADER is computed like that: 
> NUM_BYTES_OBJECT_HEADER + NUM_BYTES_INT + NUM_BYTES_OBJECT_REF. The 
> NUM_BYTES_OBJECT_REF part should not be included, at least not according to 
> this page: http://www.javamex.com/tutorials/memory/array_memory_usage.shtml
> {quote}
> A single-dimension array is a single object. As expected, the array has the 
> usual object header. However, this object head is 12 bytes to accommodate a 
> four-byte array length. Then comes the actual array data which, as you might 
> expect, consists of the number of elements multiplied by the number of bytes 
> required for one element, depending on its type. The memory usage for one 
> element is 4 bytes for an object reference ...
> {quote}
> While on it, I wrote a sizeOf(String) impl, and I wonder how do people feel 
> about including such helper methods in RUE, as static, stateless, methods? 
> It's not perfect, there's some room for improvement I'm sure, here it is:
> {code}
>       /**
>        * Computes the approximate size of a String object. Note that if this 
> object
>        * is also referenced by another object, you should add
>        * {@link RamUsageEstimator#NUM_BYTES_OBJECT_REF} to the result of this
>        * method.
>        */
>       public static int sizeOf(String str) {
>               return 2 * str.length() + 6 // chars + additional safeness for 
> arrays alignment
>                               + 3 * RamUsageEstimator.NUM_BYTES_INT // String 
> maintains 3 integers
>                               + RamUsageEstimator.NUM_BYTES_ARRAY_HEADER // 
> char[] array
>                               + RamUsageEstimator.NUM_BYTES_OBJECT_HEADER; // 
> String object
>       }
> {code}
> If people are not against it, I'd like to also add sizeOf(int[] / byte[] / 
> long[] / double[] ... and String[]).
