from perf data convert point of view (and libbabeltrace).. ;-)

I tried to convert big perf.data (2GB) and my laptop got stuck
for few minutes.. the reason is that perf allocated too much memory

I needed to add occasional bt_ctf_stream_flush into the
processing (patch attached)

What I do now is checking if we processed given amount of events
for the stream and once the value is crossed I flush it.

My question is if there's a way to find out the allocated memory
for the stream?  It'd be nicer to setup maximum allocation size
rather than the number of events.

thanks,
jirka
